was critical for my career - it was my foot into the door of the tech industry, when it can be hard to break in as a newcomer without the usual credentials. But getting your foot in the door is just the first step. To help set me up for success, Tammy was several things for me: a mentor, a source of emotional support, and an advocate. Find people who are truly dedicated to being there for others! I'm so glad that Tammy and her folks were there for me, checking in, thinking outside the box and pushing for growth and change in our communities - Rona Chong, Padawan // SRE Apprentice.
