Executive Director, Build Carolina

Build Carolina

I currently serve as Executive Director for Build Carolina, a South Carolina-based 501(c)(3) with a mission to advance our tech community through demand-driven training, connection, and support. We currently run three programs - SC Codes, Carolina Code School and Develop Carolina. Since 2017, it has been my absolute honor to build an organization with core values that align with my own: values including opportunity, community, collaboration, agility, diversity, and impact. I love to share my story and insights I have gleaned from building a nonprofit organization from the ground up. I have a unique perspective on workforce and talent development, the changing world of education and training, and career change.

State of the tech talent ecosystem

If you're attending this conference, you play a role in South Carolina's tech talent ecosystem.

What is the current state of the tech talent ecosystem? How do we define it, and how do we measure it's strength? How does Greenville stack up against similar cities?

Join Lelia King, executive director of Build Carolina, to learn what all of this means to the future of our tech community, and how you can help to make a difference. No matter if you've been part of tech in Greenville for 5 days or 25 years, you will walk away with tangible ways to make an impact on the community.
