POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

A week ago today, we filled a room with some of the most ambitious, driven, incredible women around.

Our inaugural boutique conference meets in-person mastermind, Visionary, was EVERYTHING 🙌

We celebrated, connected, laughed and learned so much from each other and from our amazing speakers.

When we created Visionary, we wanted to find a way to dig deeper, include plenty of meaningful networking opportunities and make sure every moment was curated to provide the most value possible.

With the help of our speakers:

Our closing keynote speaker, @hellohannahsoto

CURRENT CULTURAL TECH NEWS

New research involving more than 1,000 college students found that AI helped improve the quality and clarity of their work, while critical-thinking instruction encouraged more original ideas.

At Witness Creative Cultural Arts Agency, we believe young people should learn to use AI without losing their own voices, cultural perspectives, or creativity.

AI can support the work. Critical thinking, cultural knowledge, and human imagination must lead it.

Where Legacy Meets Innovation.

Always enjoy attending the HAULYP Meetings sharing my do's and don't s of life. Shoutout to Christa, Dr. Brown, and Cherelle for leading a dope conversation on the Future of Black Houston. And in the words of my immediate ancestors, "Once an Urban Leaguer, Always an Urban Leaguer...".
