“In the rapidly evolving world of technology, innovation knows no boundaries. Even so, the contributions of Black innovators in tech have been grossly underrepresented and overlooked. My series, “Breaking Barriers With Bots,” celebrates pioneers who have advanced their respective fields and paved the way for future generations of Black tech-savants. From advancements in energy and personal computing to revolutionizing gaming and telecommunications, these Black tech visionaries, in their own way, have profoundly impacted the tech world. ” Black innovators are small but mighty.

✨💖 What an AMAZING time at this year’s Black Girls Do STEM Afternoon in STEM Fall Showcase! 💖✨ Year two was nothing short of magical, and I’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to curate this experience once again as the planner, coordinator, and emcee. 🌸🌟 This year, I decided to add a little ✨spice✨ and got creative with a last-minute Donor’s Lounge. We turned up the luxury by bringing in a massage therapist to help everyone relax and our bartender, who whipped up some custom scientific-looking drinks that were both fun and fierce! 🧪🍹 Our signature “Girl Power” drink was a hit, along with three other delicious concoctions that brought all the ✨STEM vibes✨. Special thanks to Cynthia Chapple for trusting me to bring this vision to life for a second year. 🙌🏾💕 I can’t wait to see how we continue to grow and make each year even better. The best is yet to come! 🌺🔬 #BlackGirlsDoSTEM #STEMShowcase #WomenInSTEM #STEMIsForGirls #PlannerLife #EventCurator #CreativeEventPlanning #STLEvents #STEMEducation #WomenEmpowerment #DonorLove #YearTwo 💖🌸🌺🎉

An Afternoon in STEM was hit! It was so exciting to watch our students take lead and engage our community in STEM activities. This event was truly a reminder that STEM is for everyone. This would not have been possible without sponsors like Brand with Mena, Gamer's Island ,TechArtista, and Amore’ Decor. Thank you for making this possible.

This week our student Mikayla (and mom), Brittany Raji Alberty and I sat down and talked with Princess Stormm from HOT 104.1 about all things Black Girls Do STEM and our upcoming Afternoon in STEM showcase taking place tomorrow in community! It was such a great interview and Mikayla corrected me she started back in 2019 as a 6th grader and is now in 11th. I have 10,000 dates, names and things in my head constantly but her exactness and ability to talk about what being apart of the programs has done for her and helped her realize about herself and who she is set to become in her future was inspiring! Come take a trip with us down memory lane as our girls walk you through the year and share some of the experiences they had this year in the program! If you can’t make it make a donation to our work to help us keep Black Girls Doing STEM. Registration is still open! https://lnkd.in/g2RYbg3C
