Career Speaker Series Launch
The Career Speaker Series launches on 06/29/23 at 6 PM.
We are delighted that Weather Channel meteorologist Alex Wallace will be our special guest for our first Career Speaker Series session.
Mr. Wallace will discuss his background, education, and what it’s like to be on-air during inactive and not-so-inactive times. He will also talk about how the weather has changed during his career.
Mr. Wallace will also briefly discuss the behind-the-scenes components that bring him and his colleagues to your screens.
There will be an opportunity for attendees to ask questions during the event.
Meet the Meteorologist is billed as an event for students in the 3rd grade and up, but the simply curious can attend.
What’s Next in the Career Speaker Series?
The Career Speaker Series will be an ongoing program highlighting different industries and careers – featuring working professionals. We will have speakers from the world of healthcare, advertising, human resources, banking and finance, STEM fields, television production, and more.
You can check our events page and follow us on Twitter for the latest announcements.
With schools overstretched and increased security measures, career days have dwindled. We want to fill the gap.
It isn’t easy to make an informed decision if you don’t have the complete picture of choices. We know it’s especially vital for girls and children of color to be exposed to an array of career options.
We will present as many speakers and careers as possible over the coming months.
