Have you ever wondered what it might be like to be a woman in tech? It was International Women's Day yesterday, March 8, so I thought it would be the perfect time to share my experiences.
When I first started to learn to code, it was 2000, I was 13, and most people were still using Yahoo instead of Google.
I've always been self-taught, so my experiences in tech don't come from classes like some might, but I've also been working as a web developer since I was 18.
Let me preface this all by saying that I know that I've been very lucky in my journey. I've had wonderful mentors, leaders, and jobs where I "missed out" on a lot of the more negative experiences some of my female peers.
But my journey also hasn't been all sunshine and roses, either.
