About Coffee & Careers

Coffee & Careers is a passion project conceived by Dr. Casey Bradley, The Sunswine Group, that focuses on bringing career and personal development advice to animal scientists. It started out as a pilot webinar series with a small group of graduate students and has grown into a broader initiative reaching 2,000 students/professionals per year. The program consists of a webinar series, small mentoring groups, and different networking and mentoring events. The program is now led by a committee of volunteers that include individuals with diverse Animal Science backgrounds and is sponsored by Nutriquest, IFF, and Continental Search.
