MEET Nicole
Hola! Here’s a little more about me….
I’m a speaker, educator, and advocate for women of color and BIPOC. I’ve worked in tech for 10 years on programs advancing representation & inclusion, helping brands like Google understand diverse demographics to improve their community outreach with Black and Latinx users in the US and Latin America. I sit on the Board of Latinas in Tech, a nonprofit dedicated to connecting and empowering Latinas in the Tech industry. I also have a degree in Latin American Studies, bringing an interdisciplinary view to my work based in a deep historical and cultural understanding.
My idea to start Her Era came from a desire to change the current narrative and help eliminate barriers I have experienced firsthand in many spaces.
about HER-ERA
Her Era is a spin on my last name (Herrera), but it’s also a mission I’m on to elevate women and break down bias and barriers. To ensure that this work doesn’t only fall on those most affected, but on everyone. To make space for their voices and stories to shine through and create a new era, Her Era.
Through my content, I educate about small and large actions everyone can take to build a more inclusive and equitable workplace. I tell my own story of challenges I've faced as a Latina in tech, and share insights about what I know drives real transformation in organizations doing the work. My content will spark powerful conversations, build community, and empower those around me to make change for good.
SO ARE you READY?
