Java With Jen
Java with Jen is an AI networking opportunity to get together with peers, grow our connections, strengthen our businesses, discuss current topics, and create the AI you need to support your career. Java in Minnesota is working with government relations to create an outreach program to connect appraisers and lending clients. I’d like to do the same here. Hawaii Coffee Talks discussed Public Trust. Who are the people you want to meet? What do you need to run a more efficient appraisal practice? Let’s brainstorm together and level up our profession as a team of experts in each of our fields. Meetings scheduled for the third Wednesday of each month in person or on zoom. Join us for our next Java with Jen.
