"The WICT and SCTE Women’s TechConnect Mentoring program was an incredibly inspiring and educational year-long experience. I had the opportunity to connect with several fantastic, strong women leaders across the industry, and was paired with an incredibly smart mentor. She was very influential in helping me successfully transition from an individual contributor to a motivating people leader, and the skills I learned continue to serve me well in my leadership role at Charter Communications."

"I have really enjoyed being part of the TechConnect Mentorship program. It has been a very rewarding experience for me, helping women who are trying to decide which next steps to take in their careers, or sometimes just listening to their concerns and giving them a sympathetic ear. I hear their stories and relate them to my own experiences, and together we develop a relationship and a connection. I am always inspired by their journeys as I watched them learn and grow, and it is always fulfilling for me to support them on their paths to achieving their goals."
