STEM Panel Presentation – From College to Career

Join us with co-host Holy Names High School for a session that explores routes from college to a successful career in a STEM field.

The panel will discuss their backgrounds, what it’s like for a young woman to work in STEM fields today, what they wish they had known as students, and their advice for the next generation of STEM career women.

Among our panelists will be young women early in their careers as:
• a biofuels researcher from the Joint BioEnergy Institute
• a software engineer from Google
• a manager at Black Girls CODE
• a representative from GoldieBlox

Panel moderator:  Linda Kekelis is an AAUW Oakland-Piedmont branch member and CEO of Techbridge, an organization that inspires girls to discover a passion for technology, science and engineering.
