Episode 10: Ellen Martin shares how she went back to college with 3 kids at home! She ended up with a great tech career
Women in Tech -- Part 2--Ellen Martin acts like it was nothing, but we all know going back to school when you have three kids at home is not a walk in the park. She does acknowledge that she has a very supportive husband. She had been a music major before she left college the first time, and decided to major in computer science this time. And this was in the 1980s, when not a lot of women worked in technical careers. The career she enjoyed and the people she helped along the way makes for an inspirational tale!
Take Aways:
1. Look for strong women who will support you in the workplace and model yourself after them.
2. Build your network and work it, become one of those strong, supportive women yourself.
3. Have fun! (Ellen did)
