What or who inspired you to pursue a career in tech? 

My inspiration has come from one of the senior female leaders I worked with many years ago.  At the time, technology was dominated by males, this was from sales roles to senior leadership.  My strengths were in account management and she gave me an opportunity to work in an IT sales support role.  This sparked my curiosity and made me realise that a career in tech could be both challenging and rewarding.  My career grew from here.
 

What challenges have you faced and overcome? 

It has been challenging being a female in tech. It’s a male-dominated industry. Balancing work and motherhood in a fast-paced and ever-changing industry can be challenging too. I’ve overcome these challenges by building a strong network of mentors and peers and working with supportive teams.
 

What has been your most exciting career project? 

My most exciting career project to date has involved working with a pharmaceutical group to deliver an AI chatbot proof of concept.
 

What motivates you at work? 

I find seeing the positive impact our work has on end users and businesses highly motivating.
