Meet the speakers:
Kathy Bremer combines deep expertise in talent acquisition with a genuine passion for helping people find work they are meant to do. In her book, Headhunter Confidential: The Unwritten Rules For Landing A Job You Love, she draws on nearly two decades as a headhunter and five successful career transitions to reveal the secrets of landing work that brings joy and meaning. A seasoned speaker, Kathy has been interviewed by NPR and The New York Times. She has served on or chaired over a dozen boards of directors, including Global Impact, International Women’s Forum of Georgia, and Leadership Atlanta. She holds a B.A. in Sociology from Harvard University, where she wrote for The Harvard Crimson and played varsity squash and tennis.
Gabrielle Gayagoy Gonzalez (she/her/siya) is WMG's Fundraising Co-Chair and serves on the Executive Committee of the American Society of Journalists and Authors, where she also co-chairs the Diversity, Equity, Accessibility, and Inclusion Committee. She was named to Diversity Woman Media’s Power 100 List for her role in increasing diverse representation in the media, and is a co-author of Racial Justice at Work: Practical Solutions for Systemic Change. As a recruiter and DEI specialist for Static Media, Gabrielle increased the hiring of underrepresented writers by more than 50 percent and wrote the company’s first guide for developing inclusive content. She has also created marketing content for brands such as Lovevery and Weight Watchers.
Elizabeth (Betsy) Loredo is a multiplatform editor and writer who sighs over the sweeping ambiguity of “content creator” but likely would be labeled as one. She has produced print, audio, and digital material for children and their families in nearly every possible format during three decades at Sesame Workshop. As a prolific freelancer, Elizabeth is a seasoned writer, copywriter, and copy editor of both short- and long-form work, for every age demographic, with clients ranging from The New York Times Magazine to Nickelodeon. Laid off in a 2025 staff reduction, her job hunt includes all storytelling media, but a dream role would be in print and digital publishing.
