A newsletter highlighting underrepresented folks in tech
|
|
|
Hey everyone, As I mentioned last time, Iāve changed this to a monthly newsletter for now. A month sure does feel like a long time. A lot has happened since then. I finally got some childcare help since the pandemic started. Itās given me some much needed rest. It has also given me a chance to refocus on my business. Iāve been making my way through small improvements to Diversify Techās website. I added categories to the job board and the talent directory so itās easier to filter by role. If you are looking for a new job, do check it out. We have seen a surge in job postings. Itās been nice to have a more normal schedule. I feel lucky. I hope you are doing well and managing ok with everything that is going on. I hope this newsletter gives you some inspiration. š Best, Veni

I have been thinking about this for a while now .. and I wanted to share my thoughts .. let me know what you think.
My belief:
We are all lifelong beginners. We need to redefine the word as one that empowers people and not undermines or reduces their contribution.
