#0042: Chelsea Collier on smart communities + boldly creating a career for yourself that doesn't exist yet
Chelsea is the Founder of Digi.City, Editor-At-Large for Smart Cities Connect, and Co-Founder of Impact Hub Austin. She’s a 2018 Marshall Memorial Fellow and a 2016 Eisenhower Fellow. Her work has been published through Inc.com, Venture Beat, the Chicago Tribune and more. She is also an Advisor to the St. Edwards’ University Business School, the Austin Technology Alliance, and the Austin Forum. Chelsea has won an Austin Under 40 Award and has a masters and a bachelor degree in Communications from the University of Texas at Austin. Whew! All of that - well, it just scratches the surface of what Chelsea is all about. I connected with Chelsea at SXSW in Austin.
If you’ve never been to SXSW, put it on your bucket list and go. The advice I received there - from folks like Chelsea - have led to some major professional breakthroughs and unexpected support.
In today’s episode, we touch on some big concepts in the world of technology. Have no fear! Chelsea breaks things down in a way that is super easy to follow, so stick with us. We talk about figuring out what you want to do when you grow up and making it happen. No job description for your dream job? No problem. We talk about what to do if you don’t fit into a nice, neat box. Plus, we geek out a little on sustainable fashion.
