About this listen

In this episode of the Building Equitable Pathways podcast, host Kyle Hartung and guests confront the challenge of trying something new—and the vulnerability needed to do explorative work in inequitable education and workforce systems. This episode features Obinna Onyeali, Director of K-12 Partnerships at CareerWise Colorado; Mark Tapy, Senior Talent Management Manager at Pinnacol Assurance; and Emily Takimoto, Manager of Launch Internships and Youth Apprenticeships at Denver Public Schools. Zooming in on their collaboration scaling modern youth apprenticeship in Denver, Colorado, together these leaders offer a multisector perspective of their journey introducing and championing a model that was outside the norms of their local ecosystem.
