Pitch your expertise with Frances Simowitz, Program Director at NUMA!
Write/Speak/Code is for non-binary (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genderqueer) people & women, cis & trans, & is emphatically trans & queer friendly.
Description:
Have you ever gone to a meetup or career fair & just froze up when trying to tell people why you kick butt? Do you freeze up, use hedging qualifiers like just, & end up feeling like you couldn't get your points across? Learn how to craft your pitch & think on your feet as you deliver it in a series of short, one-on-one speed-dating-style interviews with other attendees.
