History & Pokémon: Digging Up One Archaeologist's Journey - Mallory

This episode of Together for Legendary Women in STEAM 2026 features Mallory, an archaeologist and science communicator.

Mallory shares her path into archaeology, clarifies common misconceptions about the field, and discusses the realities of scientific work—from field research to career pressures. The conversation also explores her presence on Twitch, where she bridges the gap between academic science and public engagement.

With a focus on accessibility, community, and representation, this episode provides an honest look at what it means to be a woman in STEAM today—both in the lab and online.
