Your next opportunity is waiting for you. 🚀 There’s something different about being surrounded by thousands of people who are building, creating, and dreaming just as big as you are. That’s what AFROTECH™ Conference feels like. 🔗 buff.ly/PsxJvce #AFROTECH #ATC2026

Exciting start to @AfroTech! In the kickoff fireside chat with CEO @MorganDeBaun, I shared my thoughts on the road ahead post-election and why young Black professionals in tech are key to the fight. Let’s keep pushing forward—together. #Afrotech
