Manage episode 305260211 series 2911208
In May 2021, "Shaping Our Future" brought more than 600 young people together from across the country to discuss their insights on major societal issues our country is facing today. They discussed these issues in small groups, listened to panel experts offer their thoughts, and interacted with each other regardless of whether or not they agreed on the subject matter.
From the team that brought you Voices of America In One Room, this is Voices of Shaping Our Future.
Throughout this season, you’re going to hear from some of our “Shaping Our Future” online participants. In this episode, we meet Isobel and Tanner.
Isobel is a 27-year-old Marketing Manager currently working for an essential services, non-profit organization in the Seattle area. Originally from Santa Cruz, CA, she moved farther north for college, where she attended Seattle University while studying Communications and French.
Tanner is a senior at Centre College in Kentucky who’s currently studying physics. Originally from Nashville, TN, he runs track in addition to being a full-time student, and is looking ahead to continuing his studies and earning an advanced degree, and anticipates a career in STEM following his education.
The Voices of Shaping Our Future podcast is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Google Podcasts, and is hosted by Alice Siu.
