The Association of National Advertisers and ANA Educational Foundation (AEF) created Homecoming to connect Marketing leaders with students across colleges and universities. I had the pleasure of visiting a couple of Dr. Masudi Stolard’s classes this week. Thank you, Dillard University and Dr. Dorian Williams, for the invitation and the warm hospitality. I was energized by the students’ questions and their career plans. Keep dreaming, reaching and working young people. #LearnWithAEF

Last week, I had the honor of hosting the ANA Educational Foundation (AEF) "You Might Be a Marketer" Conference representing McCann Worldgroup at Clark Atlanta University. Diverse leaders from across the marketing industry came together to speak with more than 250 students from Clark Atlanta University, Spelman College and Morehouse College on how to navigate this dynamic industry of marketing and advertising and better prepare them for entry-level jobs. I was so inspired by all the incredible speakers who joined us and beyond excited for the next generation of talent entering the workforce. Thank you Singleton Beato and Amber Guild for the opportunity and the incredible crew at the ANA Educational Foundation Elliot Lum, LaTasha Emmanuel, Zoe Abrahamer and Aisha Brown for welcoming me into the community and of course Steve Carnegie, MBA at Clark Atlanta.

It’s inspiring to see commitment to advancing representation and creating a positive impact in advertising. This level of dedication is exactly what the industry needs to foster inclusivity and meaningful progress. Keep leading the way!
