What an amazing event we had yesterday! #shpe #shpecolorado #shperegion3 #stem #stemforall #hispanicsinstem
I am happy to share that today culminated months of organizing with the SHPE Colorado, Aurora Science and Tech HS, and the Familia IBM Colorado BRG to bring a día de ciencias to more than 30 10th and 11th graders. We brought together representatives from local and global corporations like Eaton , Xcel Energy, JVA, Inc. 0among others, Colorado School of Mines students and staff and National Renewable Energy Laboratory as volunteers, helping students build science kits and serve as models to follow into the engineering field. It was a fun event building various science kits and solar car races on the side! A special thank you to Lyann Castillo, Katie Boye, and Angel Sanchez for their behinds the scenes work and to our amazing IBMers who showed up! 7 in all. Giving back to the community is key to building a healthy talent pipeline. I am looking forward to future partnered events. #giveback #FamiliaUnida #futureengineers #community #sisepuede
