Sasquatch Books, Seattle, 2016. Fade to dustjacket spine, otherwise good secondhand condition.
As the CEO of a startup, Tarah Wheeler is all too familiar with the challenges female tech professionals face on a daily basis. That?s why she?s teamed up with other high-achieving women within the field?from entrepreneurs and analysts to elite hackers and gamers?to provide a roadmap for women looking to jump-start, or further develop, their tech career.
In an effort to dismantle the unconscious social bias against women in the industry, Wheeler interviews professionals like Brianna Wu (founder, Giant Spacekat), Angie Chang (founder, Women 2.0), Keren Elazari (TED speaker and cybersecurity expert), Katie Cunningham (Python educator and developer), and Miah Johnson (senior systems administrator) about the obstacles they have overcome to do what they love. Their inspiring personal stories are interspersed with tech-focused career advice.
