Fireside Chat: Digital Footprint & Personal Brand

In today’s always-on digital world, your online presence is often your first introduction. This fireside chat is designed for undergraduate students, graduate students, and young professionals who want to intentionally shape how they are seen, heard, and remembered in academic and professional spaces.

Through candid conversation, speakers will explore how digital footprints are formed, how employers and leaders evaluate online presence, and how to align personal values with a professional brand. Attendees will gain practical guidance on leveraging platforms like LinkedIn and other digital channels, avoiding common missteps, and using their voice to create opportunity rather than risk.

This session empowers early-career professionals to take ownership of their digital identity, build credibility with purpose, and position themselves for growth in an increasingly connected world.
