Pitch your expertise with Frances Simowitz, Program Director at NUMA!

Write/Speak/Code is for non-binary people and women, cis and trans, and is emphatically trans and queer friendly.

Description:
Have you ever gone to a meetup or career fair and just froze up when trying to tell people why you kick butt? Do you freeze up, use hedging qualifiers like “just”, and end up feeling like you couldn’t get your points across? Learn how to craft your pitch and think on your feet as you deliver it in a series of short, one-on-one “speed-dating”-style interviews with other attendees.

Bio:
Frances Simowitz is the Program Director at NUMA, a tech accelerator for international innovators.
