The office gathered for reflection and celebration of Women’s History Month with our third annual \u201cWomen in A&E\u201d Q&A panel. We had the honor of hosting industry leaders including Tobi Wray, IIDA, NCIDQ, RDI<\/a>, Francesly Sierra, AIA,DBIA<\/a> Britt Beushausen<\/a> and Rebecca Wong<\/a>, and our moderator, Alissa Capuano<\/a>. The stories were empowering, entertaining, and real in a way that actually sticks with you long after the event ends. Some key takeaways from the panel include:

\u2192 Do not gatekeep solutions. If you\u2019ve navigated a challenge, share it. Someone else is right behind you trying to figure it out.
\u2192 The table isn\u2019t limited, make it bigger. Create more space instead of competing for a seat.
\u2192 Mentorship isn\u2019t optional. It\u2019s how we got here, and it\u2019s how the next generation will too.

There was a common thread across every story: someone took the time to support, guide, and advocate & now it\u2019s on us to do the same!

We are grateful to be part of a design community that shows up in a way that is honest, collaborative, and willing to have the conversations that actually move things forward.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
