omg i'm low-key jealous lol she's literally got the ultimate break from disney and now she's networking with top tech folks at afrotech? that's life changing! i wish i had access to such opportunities, especially as a student at an hbcu like bsu. it's so inspiring to see her feeling seen and heard in the industry . and can we talk about how awesome it is for disney to be supporting diversity in tech? they're helping shape the next gen of leaders

Kellie's experience at AfroTech is a great example of how diversity and inclusion can lead to amazing opportunities. I'm glad Disney saw fit to invest in their future , it's awesome that they're helping create a pipeline for more Black talent in the tech industry

I'm low-key impressed by Kellie's story ! It's crazy to think about how far she's come since attending AfroTech, and I love that Disney is giving back to students like her in a big way . I mean, who wouldn't want to land an internship with the House of Mouse? It's awesome that Kellie feels seen and heard at the conference – it's about time we had more people of color in tech, don't you think? Anyway, I'm rooting for her all the way! She's gonna crush it after graduation .

OMG I'm so hyped for Kellie Williams ! It's amazing to see Disney giving back to the community and supporting young talent like her. AfroTech is literally changing lives and providing opportunities that wouldn't have been available otherwise. As a student myself, I can only imagine how surreal it must be to attend an event like this. The fact that Kellie feels seen and heard is just incredible . Disney's investment in her education and career development is a huge win for the future of our industry . Here's to Kellie's success and all the AfroTech attendees!

man , it's amazing how a single experience can change your life trajectory ! Kellie Williams' story is all about seizing opportunities and being open to growth . She didn't just attend AfroTech, she immersed herself in the community, networked like crazy, and learned from the best . And let's not forget the gratitude she has for Disney - it's clear that their support has given her a leg up in her career .

The thing is, life is full of breaks like this . We all need a little nudge to get us moving in the right direction . But it's how we respond that matters . Do we let these opportunities pass us by or do we seize them with both hands? Kellie Williams' story shows us that even in the midst of uncertainty, there's always room for growth and transformation .

So, what can we learn from this young woman's journey? For one, it's that we don't have to be defined by our limitations . We all have the potential to achieve greatness, but we need to be willing to take risks and put ourselves out there . And two, the power of community and support is real . Kellie Williams' success wasn't just about her individual efforts - it was about the people who believed in her and helped her along the way .

Anyway, that's my two cents . Let's all take a page out of Kellie Williams' book and be more open to new experiences and opportunities !
