Book Preview:

#1 I attended Ursuline Academy, an all-girls Catholic high school in Dallas. In my senior year, I took a campus tour of Duke University and was awed by its computer science department. I enrolled at Duke and graduated five years later with a bachelor’s degree in computer science and a master’s in business.

#2 I am an ardent feminist. I believe that every woman should be able to use her voice and pursue her potential, and that women and men should work together to take down the barriers that still hold women back.

#3 I had left Microsoft to find the right creative outlet. I was passionate about how you get girls and women involved in technology, because technology had helped me so much during my high school years and beyond.

#4 I had the opportunity to have two careers and the family of my dreams because we were in the fortunate position of not needing my income. I had the benefit of a small pill that allowed me to space my pregnancies.
