M.R., Leader, STEM Discovery School

Thank you so much for taking time to share your story in a technology career with our girls! The Girls and STEM conference was a huge success! The idea about looking to the future and setting goals for themselves really hit home with these girls. I especially believe that sharing some seemingly inconsequential steps with them is so valuable; taking notes about the conference, writing down things they like, pursuing a status of being financially independent, having a backup STEM degree. All of these are such valuable pieces of advice.

Thank you so much for hosting a women's leadership lunch for several members at GLG. This was by far one of the best lunches I have had in a very long time.

I genuinely believe I will make changes from reading your book that will be valuable to my professional development. Thank you!
