Episode 8
8. Becca Wilusz - college sport events in the USA, applying an engineering PhD to plan crowd safety, working with students to manage safety and behaviour, women in the industry
In this episode I get to chat to Becca Wilusz, Assistant Director of Athletics / Game Operations & Championships at Duke University in North Carolina. Becca discusses her unusual career path into crowd safety at events, how she designs event plans, applies her background in biomedical engineering to planning, risk and data analysis and how her team work with students and student bodies to manage crowds. We only scratched the surface of Becca’s extensive experience and knowledge so I look forward to inviting her back very soon for part two. I hope you enjoy.
