Join Women in Entertainment for an evening with The WICT Network, featuring a panel of women working across media, entertainment, and technology.
We’ll hear from Valerie Carrillo, Senior Writer/Producer for HGTV & FOOD Network at Warner Bros. Discovery; Karla Richardson, Senior Director of Spend Analytics at OMNIA Partners and former Vice President of Emerging Product Analytics at Paramount Global; and Katie Avant, Co-Owner & Producer at Media Savant.
The panel will cover career journeys, navigating the entertainment industry, leadership, mentorship, networking, and what it takes to build a career in an industry that is constantly evolving. We’ll also hear about the panelists’ experiences as women in entertainment and the lessons they’ve learned throughout their careers.
The WICT Network will also share information about its free student membership, which gives students access to mentorship, networking, professional development, and opportunities to connect across media, entertainment, and technology.
Come hear from industry professionals, ask questions, and learn more about opportunities available to you as you build your career!
