With an M.S. in Hydrology, a B.S. in Environmental Ecology, and over 26 years of experience in watershed sciences, ecology, and construction, she has forged a remarkable career in male-dominated, remote field environments. As a licensed General Engineering contractor, she founded her first environmental firm in 2009, leveraging her expertise to drive innovative solutions. However, a personal experience of exclusion-being barred from a snow hydrology project in Montana due to the lack of restroom facilities for women—ignited her resolve to address gender inequities in the field. Motivated by this disparity, Anna channeled her frustration into innovation, blending her scientific and engineering acumen to create Chickfly pants. The patented design empowers women with discreet bathroom access without the need to remove their pants, breaking barriers for female professionals and outdoor enthusiasts alike.Evan BogartEvan Bogart, son of renowned record executive Neil Bogart, grew up immersed in the music industry, surrounded by legendary figures like Carole Bayer-Sager and Diana Ross. Starting his career at 16, he swiftly climbed the industry ranks, playing a role in the discovery of artists like Eminem and Maroon 5. Overcoming personal and professional challenges, including industry burnout, Evan returned to music with renewed vigor, co-writing major hits for artists such as Rihanna (“S.O.S.”) and Beyoncé (“Halo”). In 2020, Evan co-founded Seeker Music, a company that redefines catalog management by treating music catalogs with the same strategic, creative attention as new releases. Through proactive management, Seeker provides bespoke marketing and A&R services that elevate both catalog and contemporary music alike.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
