What are your hopes for the next generation of women in tech?
I hope the next generation of women in tech aren't focused on talking about barriers, and they can be truly empowered to rebuilding the world around them. The future isn’t about fixing a system that wasn’t built for them - it’s about creating a new one where they lead by design, not by exception.

What’s the greatest piece of advice you have ever received?
"You can’t control everything around you, but you can always control the energy you bring into a room."
