I always tell women that the fact that you're different and that you're noticed, because there are few of us in the tech industry, is something you can leverage as an advantage.

Often, the disparities in the ways men and women are treated are subtle; there are not these clear barriers that you have to break down.

I always tell women to use the fact that we offer a different point of view in a room full of men, to their advantage. Because we often stand out, we gain a unique platform to demonstrate our knowledge and capabilities.

In my career I have never felt that my being a woman was an obstacle or an advantage. I guess I've been oblivious.

Minority is about being an individual. It's like you have to sift through the darkness to find your place and be that individual you want to be your entire life.

Sometimes I just like the feeling of being a minority and seeing how far you can push yourself in extreme circumstances.

I regard other women as my community, not my competition.

Don't let anyone call you a minority if you're black or Hispanic or belong to some other ethnic group. You're not less than anybody else.

To generalize on women is dangerous. To specialize on them is infinitely worse.

There's lots of prejudice, but if you examine yourself, you can make It. Of course, this doesn't make me too popular with some quarters in the women s movement.
