I'm looking for any women who would be willing to participate in a proposed discussion panel at BADCamp.

I might also consider inviting one or two men to the panel with professional expertise on Gender Equality issues, if any step forward.

Materials on Male Advocacy from NCWIT
Hi Matt!
I wanted to make sure you know about the materials put together by the National Center for Women in Information Technology. They do a lot in this area.

You might also consider asking if they have someone who would sit on the panel. They led some great sessions during Denver Startup Week and I am guessing they are represented in the Bay Area.
Hope you are well,
Sadie
Wow, thanks, Sadie. So glad

I'd be happy to join the panel.
I'm in the Bay Area and have been a woman in tech since 1995. This was a great topic discussed at DrupalCamp Montreal just last week.
Best,
Aimee :)

I've got confirmation that I'll be attending BADCamp and would like to participate on this panel. I've been in tech for the last 14 years - most of that freelancing. This year I became a fulltime employee for a national non-profit and as the only woman on our dev team I can provide some helpful information on what our org is doing right when it comes to working with women in tech.
Happy to join the panel
Sorry for the double post!
