S2 Ep5. Living and working in the volcano with Anais Vásconez-Müller

We're joined this week by Anais Vásconez Müller from Ecuador to talk about a personal journey from growing up inside a volcanic caldera to becoming a volcanologist working at a observatory studying the same volcano! What a circle!

My name is Anais Vásconez Müller (she/her) and I am a German-Ecuadorian hybrid who after an internship at IG-EPN in Ecuador in 2016 decided that I wanted to be a volcanologist. Since I had spent lots of my childhood inside the Pululahua crater, I wrote both my bachelor's and my master's theses about this volcanic complex. Two years after obtaining a MSc in Volcanology at the University of Bristol, in 2022, I finally got the job I had been aiming for at IG-EPN and now work on monitoring and analyzing volcanic ash.
