Experience

Ambassador at Motherboard

MotherBoard | Charter, Events & Community

2024-3 - Present · 2 yrs 7 mos

United Kingdom

50% of women leave the tech industry before age 35. Let’s change that. MotherBoard is a Business Charter, Community, and Event Series on a mission to transform the tech industry to be more inclusive of women & mothers by tackling stigmas and supporting employers who want to create real change. As a MotherBoard Ambassador, I support the MotherBoard movement. I help to build the community by spreading the word about events and content as well as the MotherBoard Business Charter, which is a way for businesses to take accountability and produce tangible change within their own organisations. If you’d like to know more, drop me a message.
