You can do anything.
Hey there!
My name is Julie and I am a Sr Engineer for Verizon Wireless. When I started my venture into the tech industry, there were only 1 or 2 girls in my Engineering classes and the teachers and the guys were not as supportive or helpful when I had questions so I learned to read books and study up on new technologies on my own and show them that girls are just as good as guys.
I wanted to let you know that you can do anything you set your mind to, never let anyone tell you that you are not able to do something because you are a girl or a minority, if that were the case then I would not have gotten to where I am now and there would not have been several technological advancements that have been created by women who have come before me.
Always follow your dreams and do what you believe is right and you will succeed and possibly be the next Bill Gates or Mike Zuckerberg. The sky’s the limit as long as you believe in yourself and don’t let people tell you otherwise.
Look for STEM programs that are company sponsored, such as ones through Verizon and they can also assist in getting you where you want to be and to succeed.
Remember the future belongs to those who believe in themselves.
