Graduation ceremonies are on the horizon, but what happens once the celebrations are over and real life begins?

Successful Niners will provide answers to that question at a Connect 49er event scheduled for Wednesday, Nov. 14.

A panel of UNC Charlotte alumni will share stories of success after graduation and offer advice to help future graduates during “Navigating the Real World: Life After Graduation.”

The UNC Charlotte Alumni Association is sponsoring the event, which will be 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. in Cone University Center, McKnight Hall. The event is free, but registration is requested by Nov. 13.

The panelists are:

  • Hannah Levinson, founder and managing director at Lahayim Cooperative
  • Felice Hightower, therapist, life coach, wellness health expert and autism awareness advocate
  • Gerald Brown, owner of Inner Compass Counseling, Coaching and Consulting PLLC
  • Edward Gonzales, IT business analyst
  • Robert Wright, teacher at Olympic High School
  • Patrick Madsen, director of the UNC Charlotte University Career Center

The event will start with a networking and social period, followed by the panel discussion. Light refreshments will be served. Participants should wear business attire.
