Guyanese-born, United States-based Karen Abrams, who pioneered the introduction of STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) as an integrated discipline in Guyana has been named by the prestigious Forbes Magazine amongst a group of 50 women over the age of 50 whose work, Forbes says, reflects “the full range of career and passion project paths including entrepreneurship, business ownership, non-profit and philanthropic pursuits, inspirational leadership, public service, policy conceptualization and implementation and social advocacy.”
The Forbes Magazine “50 Over 50” initiative is a recent addition to its other well-known lists and is committed to shining a light on 50 diverse women over the age of 50 who have achieved significant success later in life, often having overcome formidable obstacles.
