To say that the program was life changing is an understatement. It was a game changer in my life and the lives of the other 26 talented women. I have been able to network with so many different people with such diverse backgrounds and ethnicities. I met CEOs and pioneers in different types of fields. That have given me a glimpse at the endless opportunities that there is for women in tech regardless of what your are oriented in. Programs like these are indispensable and needed to further diversify these technological and scientific fields in terms of gender, and hopefully it will be the mother of many other programs to come. Women will dare to defy the stacked odds and statistics. I will definitely cherish the experience of being in contact with so many influential people at a time. To the many girls that want to apply, Id would like to say you miss 100% of the shots you don't take. So always try new things and it it just might bring you somewhere spontaneous and far!
