Day 31 International Women's Month: Closing out a wonderful month with Josephine Bush. (A perfect quote for me after a crazy last few days.) #datawit #celebratingwomen

Day 29 International Women's Month: keynote speaker Mri Pandit reminds us we celebrate all women, including our moms. #celebratingwomen #datawit

Day 28 International Women's Month - we celebrate Ann Johnson (@ajohnsocyber.bsky.social) for her leadership in all areas. "There is no such thing as allyship without action. We have to use our voice because our future depends on us doing something & saying something." #datawit #celebratingwomen

Day 27 International Women's Month: @landrews5807.bsky.social quotes one of my favorite #datawit - Grace Hopper! Leslie is a speaker and author for the data platform community, be sure to check out her past and future sessions. Thanks for all you do! #celebratingwomen

"The most dangerous phrase in the language is 'we've always done it this way.'" — Grace Hopper As a data architect, my job is to prove that point. Stop the manual work. Build the pipeline. Free your users to do what they do best. 🛠️ #datawit #celebratingwomen #WomenInTech

One of the best WIT Luncheons I've had the pleasure to attend was with @grrlgeek.bsky.social. Perhaps my favorite nugget of wisdom is when talking about a setback at work "Do not consider these things a failure unless you do not learn from them." youtu.be/ZX3no0r6X58?... #datawit #celebratingwomen

Day 23 of International Women's Month: @jpomfret.co.uk reminds us of the power of representation. Be sure to visit her blog: jesspomfret.com, on the youtubes: www.youtube.com/@findingdata..., or any other of the gatrillion places she can be found helping others. #datawit #celebratingwomen

Today I'm sharing this quote for @data-wit.bsky.social - from England's most decorated football captain. "When you see somebody that looks like you, you think it’s achievable. If you can’t see it, you can’t be it." - Leah Williamson #DATAWIT #celebratingwomen

Day 22 International Women's Day: Maraki Ketema inspires #datawit making a difference in the lives of others as we continue our #celebratingwomen series. Look for her online and in person. "Education is a really powerful tool, and it has the ability to impact people's lives in many different ways"

Day 21 International Women's Day - remembering a quote from Chrissy LeMaire on AI: "We're no longer alone in finding the right words or ideas, and confronting problematic situations becomes far less daunting. And we can remove bias when we are upset." #datwit #celebratingwomen blog.netnerds.net
