Jacob Martinez (@jacobotech) spoke with Elecia about DigitalNEST (@DigiNEST), a non-profit devoted to giving high school and college age students access to technology, job training, and career development. DigialNEST is based in the agricultural communities of Salinas and Watsonville, CA.

Students who work through the course tracks at DigitalNEST can be invited to join the BizzNEST consulting group.

The conference we spoke of was NEST Flight (nestflight.org), held in September in Watsonville.

DigitalNEST is a non-profit and is accepting individual and corporate donations: digitalnest.org/donate/.
