When Excellence Isn’t Enough
Why I talk about genderIn elementary school, my dad walked me to school each day. In high school, he drove me. Along our walks and drives, he taught me that I could do anything I set my mind to. I just needed to be excellent enough. Even now, he asks me the hardest questions, and is my biggest supporter. So when I was 21, I believed that if I was excellent enough, I could do anything. I was vehemently against the Society of Women in Engineering (SWE).Ellen Chisa6 min read
