Show Notes Chapter Markers

Welcome to my very first show everyone and thank you so much for tuning in! 

On today’s episode I sit down with Lisa Mae Brunson. Lisa Mae is a Founder and Chief Visionary at Wonder Women Tech Foundation, a registered charity, founded in Long Beach, California. Over the past 7 years Lisa Mae has been running a year-round series of events, conferences, hackathons and various other programmes that help to elevate underrepresented individuals in STEAM subjects.

She has co-written books, been on the covers of magazines and received various awards, including most recently a Senate award from Sen. Ben Allen on her work in Tech field. However her real mission is getting marginalised people at the table and collectively changing the narratives and creating opportunities. 

On this podcast I had a very raw and open talk with Lisa Mae about:
1) Life as an entrepreneur and a human rights activist while being marginalised herself;
2) Corporate sponsors and building meaningful partnerships;
3) Reality around Diversity & Inclusion;
4) Sharing the table with virtual influencers.
