Meet Clarence, Data Center Mgr from @cookcountytech. He shares what Black heritage means to him: "For me, being a person who works in IT & engineering, I think of the African Americans that have paved the way in science not only for myself but the things we do in our daily lives.
Meet Clarence, Data Center Manager from the Bureau of Technology. He shares what Black heritage means to him: For me, being a person who works in IT and engineering, I think of the African Americans that have paved the way in science not only for myself but the things we do in our daily lives. Being able, as a youth, to talk to and ask other African Americans in the various science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields what their views and experience have been was a big part of why I choose to go into the STEM areas. I try and do mentoring and career day talks with youth to give back that same encouragement that I received.
