101. Hero - Jay Flores, Global STEM Ambassador at Rockwell Automation

Jay Flores is a hero to many and is inspiring young minds everywhere he goes.  He's focused on educating people about the wonderful world of STEM and is using extremely creative ways to reach people.  In this hero conversation he discusses how his passion got started and some of the twists he's taken along the way.  From creating amazing videos that are heavily consumed on YouTube and Tik Tok to giving inspirational TED talks he's living out his passion daily. For those that love America Ninja Warrior you'll want to hear about this passion of Jay's and we hope that one day he'll take on the challenge head on and be successful in his pursuit.  He could be the first STEM Ninja Warrior and that's something he's training for rigorously. Jay's "Why" is extremely personal and he shares about his childhood friend who was diagnosed with cancer.  Jay wants to make sure that the young mind that holds the cure to cancer has all the opportunities and education about STEM to make a huge impact in the world.  Guest: Jay Flores - Global STEM AmbassadorHost: Chris GraingerExecutive Producer: Adam SheetsResources:EECO's Inspire Blog: STEM Invent the ChangeJay's WebsiteJay's YouTube ChannelJay's Facebook PageResources:FIRSTGary VaynerchukEric ThomasSimon SinekSpecial Note* -  Since recording this episode, Jay took a new position as Founder and CEO of Invent the Change, LLC..
