Description
<p>In this episode, I had the opportunity to speak with Seema Shad, who worked as a Solutions Engineer at VMware.</p><p> Seema's story is extraordinary on so many levels. She lost her mother at a very young age. Coming from a very traditional Asian family, she broke with tradition, didn't marry at 18, and not only studied computer science, but also took on the role of mother to her younger brother while she was still in college. </p><p>Seema is an example of the strength women bring to the table when needed and how difficulties can be overcome with determination and support. Seema tells me that it is important to always believe in yourself and not limit yourself before trying. The one holding you back from achieving great things is most likely yourself.</p>
