Kerry Schrader - The Unlikely Tech CEO
From Senior HR Leader to Tech Startup CEO

In this talk, Kerry speaks about the ebbs and flows of her career. From managing a McDonalds, to landing the dream job at Ford Motor Company as a single mother. She then digs into her experience working toward a Master's degree while working full-time and building a new family. In the second part of her talk, Kerry talks IPO and subsequent sabbatical and how that led her to take a deep dive into Entrepreneurship with her daughter leaving a 6-figure corporate salary behind while remaining primary breadwinner. Not long after beginning the entrepreneurial journey, Kerry was diagnosed with Breast Cancer, fought back and defeated it through a combination of Faith, Family and Focus on Mixtroz. Mrs. Schrader finishes with her experience as a Black, Female, Tech founder and the steps taken to successfully raise capital while growing a tech startup.

Ashlee Ammons - Approach Anything Like It’s Everything

A single conversation with a student peer while in Undergrad led Ashlee to the internship of a lifetime with NBA star, LeBron James. Her connection to "King James" opened doors in New York City rising from Executive Assistant to Director of Events, producing for A-Listers like Oprah Winfrey, Leonardo DiCaprio and Jay-Z all by age 26. When Ashlee's time in NYC began to expire and her new life as a tech entrepreneur began to take shape she talks risking it all, the life she built, while hustling to keep her venture afloat while also battling depression. This is a story of unrelenting hustle while breaking barriers and starting the path toward her life's greatest work - Mixtroz. When Ashlee started in tech, she was known as a "Quad Outsider" (Black, Female, Non-Technical, Tech Founder) today, She is Ashlee Ammons, 38th Black Female Tech Founder to Raise $1M in funding (the 37th is her Mom and Co-Founder), President at Mixtroz, Inclusion Activist and Nasty Woman.

This extraordinary story engages the audience to realize the power of physical connection in a digital world and inspires attendees to "use the skills that they have today to build the life that they want tomorrow".

This 45-min keynote pairs well with a Mixtroz 'mix' where your attendees will use the technology that Ashlee outlines in the talk, move from their phone to face-to-face in real time increasing their engagement, kicking off the connection and collecting valuable data for you.
