#Hackergal Ambassador Neetya Pujara, a Grade 10 student from Aurora, Ontario:

»During one session, presenters displayed images of male tech CEOs, and everyone immediately recognized them. When the slide shifted to female tech CEOs, none of us could name them. That moment struck me deeply.

I didn’t know Melanie Perkins was the founder and CEO of Canva, that Ada Lovelace was the world’s first programmer, or that Hedy Lamarr created the foundation for WiFi. This realization pushed me to consciously learn about the accomplishments of women in #STEAM and inspired me to encourage other girls to recognize the impact women have had in technology throughout history.«

Me, 14 years old: I know HTML, I'm gonna be the craziest hacker, fear me, all you internet people!

Me, 34 years old: Well I've been hosting my website on a server I could only access via putty a few years, and I'm still waiting for my medal to arrive... 🤔
