WHY YOU ARE INVOLVED WITH IGNITE WORLDWIDE?
IGNITE is a very important and special organization. I admire its drive and passion to create awareness of educational and professional opportunities in the tech industry for young female students. Each IGNITE school visit leaves me inspired by the students we meet, fueling my desire to continue my involvement and find new ways to give back to the women in our tech community.
HOW HAS IGNITE WORLDWIDE INSPIRED YOU?
IGNITE has inspired me in a multitude of ways. I manage the office visits when schools visit TUNE, and I am continually inspired by the insightful questions the students ask, as well as their ambitious attitude and perseverance. IGNITE also inspired us to launch the TUNE House Roadshow, a program where University of Washington CSE students/TUNE House scholars visit middle and high schools to share their journeys of entering into the world of tech.
WHAT VALUE DOES IGNITE WORLDWIDE PROVIDE FOR GIRLS?
IGNITE gives our next generation of female students the opportunity to learn about technology and how to apply that to their future professions. The impact of these visits is limitless — once you participate on a panel or hear a student’s story, you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about.
WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE OUR WIDER COMMUNITY TO KNOW ABOUT IGNITE WORLDWIDE?
Everyone should know about IGNITE and the life-long and industry-wide impact they are making on the next generation of female software engineers.
