Yesterday afternoon, I had the opportunity to attend and be a speaker at the Black Women On Boards event hosted by Lucid Motors at its corporate headquarters in Silicon Valley.
Many thanks to #BWOB co-founders, Merline Saintil and Robin Washington, Peter Rawlinson, CEO and CTO of Lucid Motors, Nichelle Maynard-Elliott and Jared Morris for their support of this event! It was a great afternoon that included a formal program with Kara T. (Kara Temple), #BWOB member, serving as emcee, #LucidAir test drives, and networking. And a special thank you to the #Lucid team members that attended or assisted with yesterday’s event!
Please stay tuned for a future post with more information on the impactful agenda and photos.
