Nothing like a big tech conference to remind you what men in tech think about the rest of us. Them: “You’re in client services?” Me: “Not exactly.” Other them: “You don’t seem that technical.” Me: “I wrote the whole damn session.”

Love my new team at @avanade @avanadeuki. Though I may have agreed to take part in a GBBO style challenge to make a Christmas tree out of sugar cookies..

The Grinch is a story about how a whole prejudice community ostracized a green child, ran him out of town, and then gaslit him into believing he was the problem and his heart needed to grow. He should’ve lit all their presents up but yal not ready for that conversation
