Listen Later

Currently the manager of the ExxonMobil refinery in Baton Rouge, Louisiana Tech alumna Regina Davis has built her career — her whole life, even — on firsts. Most recently, she became the first Black woman to lead the BR refinery, and she spends some time this episode reflecting on the importance and meaning of that role and its personal impact during Black History Month. She discusses finding her interests for engineering early on and the challenges and triumphs of her career. She mentions some Tech faculty that helped her during her journey and spreads some life and career advice throughout her stories.
