Description
This week, host Dr. I. David Daniels will speak with Brandi Hunter founder of Aspiring Emergency Managers Online.
Breaking into a new profession is often challenging for those lacking resources and support networks. This is especially true in a profession like emergency management where the networks are limited in terms of access. However, how does one help aspiring professionals in this industry while simultaneously overcoming significant physical challenges of your own? Ms. Hunter will share her experience as an emergency manager, mom, cancer survivor, and, most recently, an amputee. She’ll discuss how, despite her own challenges, she remains focused on not only inspiring new and upcoming emergency managers while continuing to expand how the profession meets the needs of all of the communities that they serve.
