Bell shared personal tips on successfully delivering elevator pitches and then attendees paired off and practiced their own elevator pitches. At the end of the exercise, six women volunteered to present their elevator pitches and be judged by the entire group.<\/p>\n<p>The People\u2019s Choice Award (the person who received the most votes by all participants) went to graduate student Olivia Ngo from Drexel University. The winner of the first place prize went to Johns Hopkins University graduate student Alycen Wiacek, who studies under Bell. The first prize award was determined by a panel of seven judges consisting of senior members, academics, industry representatives, and IEEE fellows within the UFFC Society.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-17617","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry","news_categories-department-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Muyinatu Bell explains the elevator pitch at IEEE IUS - Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/ece\/news\/muyinatu-bell-explains-the-elevator-pitch-at-ieee-ius\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Muyinatu Bell explains the elevator pitch at IEEE IUS - Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"&nbsp;
