Grad School Femtoring: Inclusive Grad School Stories, Personal Development, and Productivity Tips for First-Gen BIPOCs

Shownotes Transcript

I’m thrilled to release an episode all about personal brand design and the business of personal development with a very special guest, Dr. Lauren Mason Carris. She’s my first guest of 2022 and also happens to be a former femtor/mentor of mine. Dr. Lauren Mason Carris is a first-gen Jew-tina who is also the VP of Learning Design at Penny AI, a global SaaS tech company. In this episode you’ll learn all about: her experience as a first-generation scholar and Applied Linguist at UCLA, the relationship between critical identity studies and personal brand design, what personal brand design is and how it's relevant for current and aspiring graduate students, how she made the leap from academia to industry, how continuous reflection of her values, interests, and skills helps her along her journey, how personal brand is an ongoing process and what questions you can reflect on to help craft your own.
