S2 Ep5 A Conversation about Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

S2 Ep5 A Conversation about Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

Tissa Hami is the Founder of Korsi Consulting - DEI Solutions for an equitable world. Tissa has had a career trajectory that often put her as the only woman, the only woman of color, or the only immigrant woman in the room. 

Tissa started her career in a New York law firm, working as a paralegal. As a Muslim woman working in a homogeneous environment and seen as only "capable" of cleaning the conference room or making photocopies, Tissa transitioned into investment banking on Wall Street only to find the same environment. 

Listen to my conversation with this fascinating woman as she discusses how she went from a law firm to Wall Street to stand-up comedy to working as one of the first female Muslim comedians to founding her own DEI firm.
