The Evolution of Autonomous Driving Vehicles and your place in that Evolution

Do you have an EV? Have you ridden in an ADV (Autonomous Driving Vehicle) recently? Have you counted the number of Tesla’s in your neighborhood? Technology is bounding forward, and it needs believers to make it happen.

Can you see yourself as a Project Manager at Tesla, a Program Manager at Scout? These new industries still need people to make it happen. Dr. Brandial Bright discusses the evolution of EVs to ADVs and reflects how Project Managers can find a place in the Evolution. Not to be missed by anyone seeking to be on the cutting edge of technology.

Presenter: Brandial Bright (Ph.D)
Brandial Bright (Ph.D) has become one of the leading authorities in Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) in the State of South Carolina. From her recent thesis on Human and Technology Factors in Fully Automated Autonomous Vehicles, she has exposed the gaps in approach and design in the struggle to create safe autonomous driving vehicles in our age.

Brandial is more than ready to take on the established thinking of those who find self-driving cars unfathomable. Dr. Bright received her BSc from the University of South Carolina, where she enrolled at age 16. She obtained her Master of Business Administration in Technology Management from the University of Phoenix, and completed her Ph.D at Robert Morris University. Dr. Bright grew up in Salley, South Carolina, and has spent most of her corporate career at DHL and Volvo Cars, seeing the emergence of self-driving vehicles (AVs) in a variety of positions, including Regulatory Trade and Compliance.

Dr. Bright is the managing partner at Fifth Level Consulting, a firm dedicated to the acceleration of policy and practice of manufacturing AVs in the U.S. She is an accomplished author, with many articles published and a well-recognized speaker. Dr. Bright finds relaxation in reading and being a mom to her daughter.
