Show Notes
Finding climate jobs, or groups of like minded professionals to network with, can be so challenging. But how do you get out of the networking slump, and build lasting, authentic connections that might support you in the long run? Our guest Daniel Gonzalez has become really good at both those things. Daniel is the founder of DJourneys, an organization helping build connection, mentorship and advocacy for talent working in the intersection of tech, climate and energy. He’s also a Climate Fellow at Cadence OneFive, a Climate Corps alum, and he holds a Masters in Environmental Management from the Yale School Of The Environment. He’s an immigrant, a climate professional, and an expert relationship builder in the industry who had to call on his network in an emergency that left him with 9 days to find a new role - or leave the country. He’s been open and honest about his raw, real experiences going from low income Colombian immigrant to (one day) Climate CSO on his Linkedin.
