Introducing the WOCAN Speaker Series
featuring successful Women of Color in Automotive
who have navigated their way to the top
Join us for our March WOCAN Speaker Series event featuring Kerri Wise, Chief Marketing Officer of AutoFi and President/co-Founder of WOCAN.
Women of Color represent only 4% of all C-suite executives, and Kerri as a 23 year automotive veteran and CMO is trailblazing her own path, in her own authentic way. She went from intern to the C-suite, working at an impressive portfolio of innovative companies along the way, including J.D. Power, Edmunds, TrueCar and now AutoFi.
Kerri’s accomplishments and accolades are numerous including being recognized as an Automotive News Top 100 Leading Women in North America (2020), Automotive News Notable Champion of Diversity (2021), Auto Remarketing Top Women in Retail (2019), and being inducted into San Jose’s East Side Union School District’s Hall of Fame.
She is a well-respected industry speaker and thought leader, who uses her deep knowledge of the business to share insights and trends to automotive audiences, oftentimes as the only women of color on the agenda.
But she has figured out a way to turn her differences into her advantage! Come hear Kerri’s story on how she broke through to the C-suite, as a black woman in a predominantly male industry, and the lessons that she learned along the way.
