Cat, an Environmental and Community Steward, and Avril, a Senior Associate at Point Energy Innovations, each shared their personal and professional journeys in the Green Building field with the audience.
The event was moderated by Emily Au, SLIA's Climate Careers Chat intern, and Aarav Shah, a SLIA volunteer. When asked for parting advice for the audience, the panelists ended the program by sharing:
"It’s really important to advocate for yourself, assert yourself, and [...] stay strong.” - Avril Levasseur
“The path is not linear. What we think will happen really actually happens… sometimes things [just] get in the way. What really worked for me was that I always knew what I cared about and always put my energy into it.” - Cat Kiser
Thank you to the Contra Costa County Library, our panelists Cat and Avril, and the entire Climate Careers Chat team for making this event possible!
