We interview Cherish Samuels, a unicorn of unicorns, as she is a Black, female, mechanical engineer.We talk about everything from her journey getting into engineering at a young age, for years being the only face on the job that looks like hers, and how she has transitioned into tech now working on Amazon Fresh, the automated checkout grocery store.We also talk about Cherish’s son’s unique name, her not changing her last name when she got married, and, people still thinking it's cool to touch black people's hair even after you tell them not to.Link to Show NotesThis Week's Special Guest: Cherish Samuels - https://www.linkedin.com/in/cherishsamuels/ Hosted on Acast.
