About this listen
In the 1990s, long before “Women in Tech” was a hashtag, Carol forged her technical career in server rooms and offices where she was the only woman.
In this memoir, Carol looks back on a 35-year, globe-crossing IT career that took her through the dawn of the internet, the machinations of the commercial sector, a celebrity dot-com, and an eye-opening job as a technical gun-for-hire.
In an industry known for both gender and age bias, Carol still has her hands on the tech well into her fifties. In this candid and engaging account, she relates how she’s done it by channeling the outspokenness and do-it-yourself ethos of the grunge era Riot Grrrls.
This is the story of how Carol became the original IT Grrrl.
