WIFVNE Member Erin Underwood moderated the Finding Allies panel at the Boston Science Fiction Film Festival, held in person February 14-19, 2024 at the Somerville Theater. 

Erin reports having a great time on the Finding Allies panel, where she represented WIFVNE.  The discussion, she says, "was so much more wide reaching than I imagined. We got into what it's like in the industry (for anyone), how to make connections, how hiring works, and the joy that can come with the work - especially when working with colleagues who support you."

Erin supplied the photos below, with the following:  "Please ignore my giant head in the selfie! But check out the weird blurry accidental photo that I took. It's kind of artsy and weird in a fun way.

She adds:  "Thank you for thinking of me [WIFVNE] and Garen Daly (of Boston Science Fiction Film Festival. I really enjoyed meeting my co-panelists Claudia Anahí Ramirez, Giang, and Michelle. Also, thank you to Tyler Knohl for organizing everything onsite, The Burren for hosting us, and all of the audience members who attended."
