Using social media to accelerate your tech career

On this episode, we talk with Pariss Athena, the creator of #BlackTechTwitter & founder of BlackTechPipeline.com, about how developers can use social media to advance our development career.

We have a great conversation about Pariss’s journey from being an esthetician waxing bodies to founding her very own tech startup.

Helen may have had the face that launched a thousand ships, but Pariss had the tweet that launched a global conversation.

Pariss tells us what the experience was like on her meteoric rise, and offers a whole lot of advice on how you, too, can leverage social media like Twitter to aid in your own journey.
