We are overjoyed to welcome our keynote speakers to Hartford, CT
Tricia Montalvo Timm will take the stage during our morning program and share knowledge that will illuminate the power within you. As a corporate board director, attorney, speaker and author this first-generation Latina rose through the ranks of Silicon Valley advising high-tech companies big and small, culminating in the sale of data analytics software company Looker to Google for $2.6 billion. Tricia is one of the few Latinas to have attained the triple achievement of reaching the C-suite, joining the boardroom and cracking the venture capital ceiling.
Her career has spanned from working with some of the largest and most well-known publicly traded multinational companies in the world to stepping on as the first lawyer at several high-growth start-ups. Tricia currently serves on the board at Salsify, a top enterprise SaaS software company. She is also an advocate for women and girls and serves as a mentor, advisor and investor in female-founded companies.
Aida Rodriguez is a comedian, writer, and actor—a favorite of critics and fans alike. Esquire Magazine declared of her, “This is Rodriguez’s genius—using comedy to turn pain into progress, to give voice to the voiceless, and to laugh instead of cry.” Aida’s comedy special Fighting Words is streaming on HBO Max and she was a standout on the Tiffany Haddish produced hit series They Ready for Netflix. She is a key collaborator on the platform’s Entre Nos franchise, which features the brightest up-and-coming LatinX comedy talent. Aida was not only a breakout star of the series early in her career, she also recently stepped behind the camera to direct its current batch of specials. She has been a guest writer for The L.A. Times, BuzzFeed and O, The Oprah Magazine as well as a regular commentator on The Young Turks. More on www.funnyaida.com/.
