AAAEA - Capital Area

Dr. Amal El Akkraoui, a research scientist in atmospheric data assimilation at NASA and AAAEA-capital area VP presented, presented on "The Power of Mentoring in Influencing Career Trajectories" during our March Learn & Network event. The presentation focused on historic mentors and mentees, different models and types of mentorship, and the role of mentors during success and failure.

Dr. Amal El Akkraoui did a wonderful job keeping the audience engaged and intrigued during her up-lifting presentation, which led to an exhilarating and lively discussion.

After the presentation, Mamdouh Elsakka presented the organization's goals and objectives for 2018 and shared a quick glance at the 2018 upcoming events.
