the Only Woman in the Room
OWR is focused on introducing women to inspiring technical leaders that can offer insights and tools to help navigate their way in a male-dominated profession. Along the way we hope to be able to build a community of women (and our male allies) for networking, support, and a safe space to discuss the challenges we face.
