We live in an amazing time, where the influence and impact of technology permeates every aspect of our lives. We rely on #tech for so much yet women make up a relatively small percentage of the technical workforce. Grace Hopper Celebration turns that completely on its head. You can't possibly imagine my excitement to hear that I had been selected as a candidate to attend this year's Grace Hopper celebration. Your confidence in me is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much. To hear inspirational keynote talks from these super technical woman all in the spirit of furthering the advancement of women in tech. @stemettes you have and are constantly changing the dynamics by connecting girls like me all over the world...
