Ribka works as a mechanical design engineer at WSAudiology. Her serious passions include advocating for and supporting girls, women, and people of color in any and every space that she occupies. Ribka also volunteers with two NGOs in Copenhagen: High5Girls, which helps expose young girls to careers in STEM; and Projekt Qværk, which helps former victims of domestic violence find community with each other.
