On Friday, June 29, Google, in partnership with the State of the Black Tech Ecosystem Summit, is hosting a Women of Color Networking Event.
In addition to networking and fellowship, we will start the event with a few stories from amazing women of color and hear how they have created a space for themselves in the tech industry.
Join us for an evening of storytelling, networking, and empowerment!
Kira Hooks is a Senior Account Manager at Google. In 2018, she launched @SuperRicheKids, a story telling platform designed to inspire, inform, and influence the next generation of diversity talent with co-founder, fellow Googler, and best friend Jodie Taylor. While still in it's infancy, the goal of SuperRicheKids.com is to address the fact that students and young professionals starting out in their career journey, particularly those of color, are often under informed, underpaid, and under inspired. Our mission is simple: Inspire the next generation of diverse talent. Inform them with anecdotal and professional resources. Influence them to enter into professional spaces where we have been historically underrepresented.
