I believe strongly in cultivating leaders. It is essential to create workplaces where women’s voices are amplified. I will always encourage young women to enter the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics fields: Women everywhere should grow up encouraged to become whatever they want to be. I want to be an ally to women in the workforce as best as possible, not just because I have a daughter who I want to see succeed, but because I believe that companies work best when diversity of thought, people, and expertise are entrenched core beliefs.
At Extreme, we know there is always more work to do. But we are proud of the diverse talent pool we have created and the outstanding work our people produce every day around the world. On International Women in Engineering Day, we’re taking the opportunity to recognize three of our most outstanding engineers at Extreme.
Thank you to these incredible women who took the time to share their stories with me and the world. Your experiences, work ethic, and commitment to excellence can help us cultivate curiosity in the next generation of female engineering talent and encourage them to follow in your footsteps.
Promoting these experiences is a small, simple step to inspire more women to pursue STEM careers. Follow us on LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram and look for the hashtag #INWED21 to help us share more stories from our amazing female engineers!
