Humans Of Global Engineering

Leading the @HumansofGE campaign this past National Engineering Month has been an amazing experience. I shared a restrospect on how it went with @NEMOntario, very humbled that they shared it on their blog. You can check it out here 👇

We loved @HumansofGE’s #storytelling campaign showcasing a #diverse range of stories from members of the #STEM community during #NEM2019! This #student-run initiative was SO successful they had to extend the campaign! nemontario.ca/2019/04/09/hum…

Our friends over at @humansofge are doing a special series on Humans of Sustainable Development! Check out some of their previous features, and submit your own story to share how your work impacts progress towards achieving the SDGs #Hello2030 bit.ly/2IBgtJY

We absolutely love this! 🙌 We completely agree with @MicheleRomanow & feel it is so important for young girls to see more women role models in the industry to realize that there is a place for them in engineering! #WomenInSTEM #NEM2019 @clearbanc @Buytopia @cbcdragon @NEMOntario
