Hi Dinah Davis, thank you for your response. I really appreciate the time you took to write it.

I know that tech industry isn’t perfect and has room for improvement.

I made a point to recognize what happened at Uber. I do know that things like this exist (at companies other than Uber too) and that what happened there is not good/welcoming by any means.

The point I want to get across is: despite its problems, tech is nevertheless the best and most welcoming industry for women that I’ve seen.

My article wasn’t saying “the whole tech industry is welcoming.” I was merely trying to give examples of why I think it’s welcoming based on personal experience.
