CuSTEM Journey feat. Engineer and Podcast Host Andrew Baines

Episode Title: CuSTEM Journey feat. Engineer and Podcast Host Andrew BainesThe Interface crew sits down with Engineer and founder of CuSTEM Journeys Podcast, Andrew Baines, to chat about how to deal with nay-sayers and how his career as an engineer helped him start podcasting and become a diversity focused recruiter. “…we need to encourage and push our students and the kids from our communities to do more than what’s just typically expected. If I would’ve just said, “Yo, I’m gonna go walk on at JUCO and go try to play ball there, nobody would have blinked an eye.”“if you’re giving advice, you definitely have to know the individual. Where is their head space at? What is their awareness of what they are about to do? I definitely think transparency and helping the person understand what are the next steps needed to be successful on this journey.”“Let’s create systems or opportunities or opportunities within our organization so that we can train the next batch of talent we need for the problems we have we have currently.” Links·        Siara Heat Check: https://techcrunch.com/2023/03/09/apple-launches-its-new-classical-music-streaming-app-for-pre-order/?utm_medium=TCnewsletter&tpcc=TCdailynewsletter ·        Jenni Heat Check: https://wix-ux.com/when-life-gives-you-lemons-write-better-error-messages-46c5223e1a2f ·        Mattie's Heat Check: https://www.pcmag.com/news/accessibility-and-ai-microsoft-details-its-plans-for-a-more-inclusive-future·        Jenni CuSTEM Journeys episode: https://youtu.be/ELFk6btkM5k  Contact AndrewCuSTEM Journeys Podcast: cuSTEM journeys - https://www.custemjourneys.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-baines-85763848/ Reach out to The Interface Podcast Crew at ·        [email protected] OR·        Jenni Plummer - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniplummer/ OR ·        Siara Barnes - https://www.linkedin.com/in/siara-barnes-b47a923a/ OR Matthew Negron - https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthew-negron94/
