Connecting with EA DC Members

We are incredibly fortunate to have a robust, growing community with members at all stages of life and career, and we want to take a moment to highlight opportunities for you to connect with one another, in addition to this month’s events:

• EA DC now has an Intros.AI page where you can sign up to be connected to a new member over email each week, two weeks, or month for an introductory conversation. This is a great way to connect to other EAs in the area who share your interests. Sign up here!

• Join the EA DC Slack! This is where most day-to-day conversations happen.

• You can also email members on our community directory to chat about similar interests or add yourself to the community directory. Everyone on the directory has indicated that they’re happy to talk to new people about their interests and experience in EA.

• If you are unsure where to start or are looking for particular advice or connections, you can schedule a 1-on-1 call with an EA DC Organizer.
