given me an outlet where I can build relationships with other women in tech and help empower the next generation of female leaders . Helping to grow this community is one of my proudest legacies , both as a woman and a business leader .
Q . FOR SOMEONE JUST STARTING OUT IN IT TODAY , WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE THEM TO BUILD A SUCCESSFUL AND FULFILLING CAREER IN THE TECH INDUSTRY ?

I think it is important for young professionals to focus on what attracts them to this industry and really get to know their unique strengths and interests .
