   In this episode, Dr. Nashlie H. Sephus, a Tech Evangelist at Amazon (AWS), Founder/CEO of Bean Path, Entrepreneur and now a Real Estate Developer, joins Dear Sister! to take our audience on her journey. From being a CTO of a startup that was sold to Amazon to developing 14 aces in downtown Jackson, MS, Dr. Sephus is "just getting started". Dr. Sephus is the Applied Science manager for Amazon’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) focusing on fairness and identifying biases in AWS AI technologies. She formerly led the Amazon Visual Search team in Atlanta, which launched visual search for replacement parts on the Amazon Shopping app in June 2018. This technology is a result of former startup Partpic (Atlanta) being acquired by Amazon, for which she was the Chief Technology Officer (CTO). Prior to working at Partpic, she received her Ph.D. from the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2014 and worked for a year with Exponent, a technical consulting firm, in New York City. Her core research areas were digital signal processing, machine learning, and computer engineering. She received her B.S. in Computer Engineering from Mississippi State University in 2007. She is featured as Georgia Tech’s inaugural top 40 under 40 alumni in the Class of 2020. Dr. Sephus is a native of Jackson, Mississippi and a 2003 graduate of Murrah High School/Power Academic and Performing Arts Complex (APAC). She had several internships and research experiences worldwide with companies such as IBM, Delphi, University of California at Berkeley, GE Research Center, GE Energy, Miller Transporters, and Kwangwoon University in Seoul, South Korea. In 2018, Dr. Sephus became the founder and CEO of The Bean Path non-profit organization based in Jackson, MS, assisting individuals and startups with technical expertise and guidance. In September of 2020, she became the owner and developer of the Jackson Tech District, at least 12-acres of mixed-use commercial real-estate in downtown Jackson to bring tech training and workforce/economic development to the area. In addition to these, she is the co-founder of KITTLabs in Atlanta, GA which was created to assist in building equity and opportunity, targeting Black entrepreneurs in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, math). During her leisure time, she enjoys playing tennis, playing the piano, listening to music, bargain hunting, biking, gardening and working on do-it-yourself (DIY) projects at home.

   Join Theresa G. Kennedy, Creator and Host, for an exciting and informative conversation about Wealth Building through Real Estate with our guest, Kendra Barnes who is the Founder & Creator of The Key Resource (https://www.facebook.com/groups/241836009576155/?__cft__[0]=AZU8okC-oAjpbZYZ_en5a5ZmWAciYB3gOYWv4ma_dWlILU5ONea9Jj6IiNw9N_uxE9DZ-P2KW4XsHyDFmpsfphjTIATPuOybTErD6cKeHhsFHzl8rGk0sjVLWBXWJz1X9bc&__tn__=-UK-R). Kendra helps beginner Real Estate Investors learn how to make passive income with Real Estate (even if you don't want to be a Landlord!). Over the past four years, she has built a Real Estate portfolio that generates over $150,000 in rental income per year. By the age of 30, Kendra owned and managed 7 rental units. No, she did not hit the lottery nor was she left a hefty inheritance. She started out in Real Estate Investment with the goal of building wealth but she had no idea what she was doing. Kendra learned some hard lessons and had some major wins- but it wasn't easy. Her real estate investments afforded her the ability to retire from the 9-5 life at the age of 32. Kendra is on a mission to change the perception of what a Real Estate Investor is supposed to look like by encouraging and empowering millennials to invest in Real Estate. #dearsisterpodcast (https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/dearsisterpodcast?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU8okC-oAjpbZYZ_en5a5ZmWAciYB3gOYWv4ma_dWlILU5ONea9Jj6IiNw9N_uxE9DZ-P2KW4XsHyDFmpsfphjTIATPuOybTErD6cKeHhsFHzl8rGk0sjVLWBXWJz1X9bc&__tn__=*NK-R) #dearsister (https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/dearsister?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU8okC-oAjpbZYZ_en5a5ZmWAciYB3gOYWv4ma_dWlILU5ONea9Jj6IiNw9N_uxE9DZ-P2KW4XsHyDFmpsfphjTIATPuOybTErD6cKeHhsFHzl8rGk0sjVLWBXWJz1X9bc&__tn__=*NK-R) #thekeyresource (https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/thekeyresource?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU8okC-oAjpbZYZ_en5a5ZmWAciYB3gOYWv4ma_dWlILU5ONea9Jj6IiNw9N_uxE9DZ-P2KW4XsHyDFmpsfphjTIATPuOybTErD6cKeHhsFHzl8rGk0sjVLWBXWJz1X9bc&__tn__=*NK-R) #realestate (https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/realestate?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU8okC-oAjpbZYZ_en5a5ZmWAciYB3gOYWv4ma_dWlILU5ONea9Jj6IiNw9N_uxE9DZ-P2KW4XsHyDFmpsfphjTIATPuOybTErD6cKeHhsFHzl8rGk0sjVLWBXWJz1X9bc&__tn__=*NK-R) #landlord (https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/landlord?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU8okC-oAjpbZYZ_en5a5ZmWAciYB3gOYWv4ma_dWlILU5ONea9Jj6IiNw9N_uxE9DZ-P2KW4XsHyDFmpsfphjTIATPuOybTErD6cKeHhsFHzl8rGk0sjVLWBXWJz1X9bc&__tn__=*NK-R) #wealthbuilder (https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/wealthbuilder?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU8okC-oAjpbZYZ_en5a5ZmWAciYB3gOYWv4ma_dWlILU5ONea9Jj6IiNw9N_uxE9DZ-P2KW4XsHyDFmpsfphjTIATPuOybTErD6cKeHhsFHzl8rGk0sjVLWBXWJz1X9bc&__tn__=*NK-R)
