Your career is a journey that is unique to you, but that doesn't mean you don't have shared experiences. Join a panel of women data professionals for an open discussion on their winding career paths, how they got here, and where they're heading next. We'll talk about what it's like to be a woman in tech, what worked for them, and how building a strong network of people to be in your corner can help you achieve your goals.

There are sessions on mental health, lunch with the SQLBits Buddies, other career path sessions, sign language... So much to help us all improve our sense of whole and career.
