Women account for 35% of the tech workforce, and in major tech companies, women are the minority. As women seek to level the playing field in this male-dominated industry, they’re expanding their networks and embracing risks.  

In this episode of The Intersection Podcast, host and Full-time MBA student Analisa Wade chats with two Scheller MBA students about navigating their careers as women in the tech industry and what they’ve learned.  

Evening MBA student Rose Espiritu, a senior engineering manager at Microsoft and former senior software Engineer at FanDuel, shares her tips on building confidence in the industry and how networking has helped grow her career. Brooke Shareé, a program manager at Amazon Fashion before joining the Full-time MBA program, discusses the importance of stepping outside her comfort zone and her experience embracing risks in her career.  

Wade, Espiritu, and Shareé also reveal how their passion for technology inspired them to break new ground at Scheller and create the inaugural TechForward MBA Conference: Innovation at the Intersection of AI. The two-day conference is October 24 - 25 at the Scheller College of Business.
