Many of us have experienced disconnection from our loved ones this year, especially with older family members. It can be difficult to stay in touch when parents and grandparents aren't technologically savvy. They might not know how to text, how to use their cell phone to place a call, or how to initiate a video call. We hope that can change after you listen to this episode. To help us learn how we can stay connected with the senior citizens in our lives, we brought on Bria Sullivan. For the past six years, Bria has had a side hustle teaching seniors how to use technology. Today, she shares her best tips on how we can do the same with the elders we love.

Bria Sullivan is a Software Engineer at Google as well as an expert in iOS, Android and Web Development. She’s a gift to the culture who uses her talent and platform to cultivate the Black Tech Community. She’s started a platform, Techstackd, where she educates start ups on technical hiring, assists people in locating technical co founders, provides mock interviews and more. Last year she secured close to a million dollars in salaries for boot camp grads and first time developers at tech companies. I had a powerful conversation with her that was full of insight, wisdom and resources. Outside of her technical skill she shares a commitment to her culture, women and those facing adversity. Her testimony is also very awakening with challenges including overcoming domestic abuse and the pain of loss, all while trying to balance a career. A reminder that everyone, even the strongest and most successful people you know are battling something. A wonderful and inspiring listen.
Jamarlin talks to Bria Sullivan, a trailblazing mobile-app developer, about her work at Google and how she is helping others get in the game. They discuss internal cultural optimization, and whether African American culture is "underweight" in tech and science and "overweight" in athletics and entertainment. They also discuss Jamarlin's experience at McKinsey & Co, where an applicant with a 4.0 GPA and near-perfect SAT score was rejected because he was from the "wrong school."
