Welcome to another insightful episode of the Amateurs and Experts podcast! In this episode, hosts Erica Chin and Jessica Adanich sit down with Kailey Nieman, the Director of Development at Gun Owners of America (GOA) recorded live from the Otis Technology booth at Shot Show 2024. They delve into her journey into the firearms industry and discuss important topics surrounding personal safety and empowerment. Kailey shares her upbringing in Tennessee, where firearms were a common part of everyday life. However, it wasn't until she entered college and faced a personal safety threat that she truly understood the importance of taking responsibility for her own safety. Kailey emphasizes the critical role of situational awareness in personal safety. She discusses various resources available, such as podcasts and online platforms, which individuals can utilize to enhance their knowledge and skills in firearm safety. By sharing Kailey's journey and insights, this episode underscores the importance of empowering women in the firearms industry and fostering a culture of safety and inclusivity.
