Hey everyone, Ashlie M. Guyberson here. I’m one of the three young professionals in Atlanta this week for the Nuclear Energy Assembly. One of my favorite parts of this conference is the opportunity we get to hear about the struggles and opportunities our industry is currently facing. We get to make connections and build relationships that will help us ensure nuclear power has a place in the future of our energy supply. My fellow attendees - Chris Packard and Meredy Brichford - and I spent the day yesterday in several professional development seminars and discussions. Some of our favorites included a fantastic presentation and workshop called “Turn the Ship Around” by Master Chief Andy Worshek, a panel discussion about Making Nuclear Cool Again (my personal favorite), Atomic Exonomics (Chris’s favorite) and Entrepre-NEWER technology (Meredy’s favorite). Can you tell who isn’t the engineer of our group? 😉 Give us a 👍🏼 to hear more about these topics this afternoon! While we collect our thoughts and head off to another full day, we’ll leave you with a few images from yesterday.

Happy Monday friends! As you sip your morning coffee and plan your week we want to invite you to keep an eye on our feed the next three days. Why you ask? We sent three of our young professionals to Atlanta for the annual Nuclear Energy Assembly hosted by the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI). They’ll be taking over our facebook feed and sharing their experiences as they expand their knowledge and grow their network in the nuclear industry. They started their week last night with a Millennial Nuclear Caucus networking event with Chairwoman of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Kristine Svinicki and NEI Chief Nuclear Officer, Bill Pitesa. This morning, they’re also sipping their coffee in their North American Young Generation in Nuclear (NAYGN) annual meeting. We’re excited to see what the key topics are in the industry this year and hope you join them as they share their week with you.
