Presented as the Keynote Talk at WE-STEM Symposium at Eastern Washington University in Cheney, WA.
Diversity brings so many important benefits to the world of STEM. While history hasn’t always highlighted the contributions made specifically by the women who came before us, their impact is just as powerful. I’ll share stories of some of these brave, intelligent women in STEM along with my own journey in tech. The road for women in STEM isn’t the smoothest and can have obstacles along the way but there is tremendous value generated by those brave enough to travel it.
