  • Résumé

  • ANS Lab's Feature Friday is now a podcast! The goal of our long-standing Feature Friday initiative has always been to give you a platform to share your experiences, expertise, and passions. This platform hosts holistic conversations promoting stellar ANS community members and true allies, placing a focus on the fantastic work being done in the community to help close the employment gap for Blacks and ANS between the ages of 18-35. We inspire our audience by exploring your personal stories, what drives you, and your accomplishments. This year's 12 podcast episodes, which come out the last Friday of every month, are hosted by Aaliyah Arab-Smith and Trevor Silver and are sponsored and supported by ShiftKey Labs, with giveaways of two $50.00 e-gift cards for every episode. There will also be the opportunity to win gift cards from local Black businesses. You can find the podcast on all podcast platforms as well as YouTube!
