Hello friends!
|
||||
|
||||
So, I don’t know if a lot of you have ever watched a TED talk before, but they usually have some interesting food for thought.
|
||||
|
||||
WELL, I gave a talk at TEDxDesMoines last December, and I thought I’d share it with you all!
|
||||
|
||||
It’s just about my growing up as a woman in STEM (Science, Tech, Engineering, Math), and about following your passions.
|
||||
|
||||
I hope it gives you some inspiration to go after what you want.
|
||||
|
||||
And, you know I like feedback! I'm so happy about some of the comments and discussions coming out of the video:
|
||||
|
||||
> "I particularly enjoyed this presentation. For some silly reason, many of the Math, Science and Engineering academic folks do not embrace Computer Science as a core element of STEM. In reality, Computer Science is the cortex of STEM. This young woman encorages everyone to have a passion, explore, network and have fun!
|
||||
> She is combining her avocation with her vocation! I applaud her.. clap clap clap."
|
||||
> - Arta Szathmary
|
||||
|
||||
> "I believe that Cassidy is a perfect STEM model for women and humankind."
|
||||
> - Chris Pirillo
|
||||
|
||||
> "Cassidy will change the world, I am honored to know and work with her! Please show this video to all your daughters!"
|
||||
> - Rane Johnson-Stempson
|
||||
|
||||
> "Wonderful speech and thank you for being such an inspiration for young women everywhere! I can only hope that the doors you are working to open are there for my daughter when she gets older. Keep up the great work and keep inspiring everyone! <3"

I don't know if any of those people will read this post, but I hope they know how much I appreciated their thoughts!
