Amplify Allyship — Live Allies in Action Meetup NYC
Partner: Amplify Allyship Location: New York City, NY Venue: Wunderkin NYC Office Date: June 18th, 2025
This was more than a networking night—it was a strategic gathering for leaders who believe allyship isn’t charity, it’s leadership.
I joined 50+ senior HR and talent leaders, DEI and social impact executives, ERG leads, and culture champions for an elevated evening of community, conversation, and action
The conversations focused on real talk and perspectives as we dive into a conversation about what allyship truly means, what it takes to remove barriers, build bridges and create access inside organizations.
Navigating the Tech Journey: Embracing Growth, Resilience, and Opportunity at BMCC’s Tech Panel
Partner: Borough of Manhattan Community College Venue: BMCC Location: New York City, NY Date: February 21st, 2024
It was an honor to speak at Borough of Manhattan Community College’s recent tech panel and share my career journey in the technology industry. My path has not been a straight line–there were challenges, unexpected turns, and moments of growth that came from stepping into the unknown. Along the way, I discovered that success in tech isn’t about knowing everything from the start, but about staying curious, resilient, and willing to learn new skills.
What I hoped to leave with the students is this: no matter where you begin, there is room for you in technology. Whether you’re just exploring the field or already building toward a specific goal, every step you take builds a foundation for what’s next. If you stay open to growth and keep moving forward, opportunities will come.
