Dr. Heather Adams and Dr. La'Tonya (LT) Rease Miles discuss how vital it is to reflect on and share our transfer, first-gen, and/or adult-learner stories. They provide insight into the why behind adding this narrative to our LinkedIn profile and suggestions on making our story dynamic on the platform and how we share this part of ourselves. 

Heather and LT challenge listeners to add their first-gen, transfer, and adult learner experience to their resumes, LinkedIn profiles, and cover letters.
