It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Summer
Welcome to another edition of the Women in Technology newsletter!
If you are in the northern region of the world like me, the days are getting longer, the sun is shining until later in the day, and people are beginning to travel and enjoy activities outside! What a great time to be alive. Here at Women in Technology, we continue to write and read the best stories from our writers: from blockchain to interview prep to computer science and diversity and inclusion. There’s always a good story to enjoy.
This month, we’ll shout out to stories in three categories of May’s most submitted stories: Artificial Intelligence, Lessons Learned, and Technical Articles. These are just a tiny amount of all the great stories submitted to the Women in Technology publication this past month. To read our archive, click here.
Last month, we had many stories being boosted by the Medium Boost Program, and we are so happy to see the craft of our writers improve more and more every month. When you submit a story to Women in Technology, we work together to make your story show the best version of your craft, your stories, and the lessons you have gained throughout your years of experience in the industry.

Lessons Learned
- Odette Marie shares her personal and professional journey in the essay Things I learned from a micromanager.
