Session: The Intersectionality of Being a Black Woman in Tech: Take a walk with me

Growing up as a young Black girl pursing an education and career in technology, I have faced many barriers and challenges along the way, unique to my intersectional identity. I wrote an open letter to my Black Girls in Tech which I would start with. I hope that sharing my personal journey, lessons learned, and data points around walking this walk hopefully will foster a new thread of empathy, inspire others to persevere, lean in, and uplift others, regardless of their race or gender.
