Engineering careers can be dynamic, across many different sectors, and in new areas that require experience, a problem-solving lens, and perspective.

In this episode we sit down with Dr. Jocelyn Peltier-Huntley to talk about her experience as a mechanical engineer.  She has extensive experience in the mining sector, where she worked in coal mining, lead and zinc smelting, and the potash industry.  After working for over a decade, Jocelyn decided to go back to university to do research on workplace culture.  Jocelyn is the Principal and Owner of Prairie Catalyst Consulting, and her company helps support individuals and organizations to make work places more equitable.  Recently, Jocelyn published a book called Active Allyship that highlights evidence-based solutions that can help make positive change in workplace culture.

In this conversation, Jocelyn talks about her extensive career and the work she is doing at Prairie Catalyst Consulting.  She also offers advice to young people thinking about a career in engineering, and advice to those thinking about going back to graduate school.
