Fox Cities Chamber: 150 girls attend Smart Girls Rock! STEAM careers event
The goal of the event, held this year at Miller Electric, is to inspire more young women to engage in local STEAM programs. The day-long, interactive mentoring event includes a diverse lineup of participants with the hopes of fostering meaningful interactions and inspiring the next generation of female leaders to pursue careers in STEAM fields.
“These girls have the chance to make a real difference and bring meaningful change to their future workplaces,” said Karena Dyer of Miller Electric, the host company. “One of our employees attended the very first Smart Girls Rock! event eight years ago, arranged a job shadow with us afterward, which led to an internship and eventually a job here at Miller. This year, she’s come full circle, returning as a mentor at the event.”
