When I heard about the Ada Lovelace pledge, I knew I wanted to participate to help honour all of the amazing women I’ve worked with over the years in science and technology, especially at Intel and at Carnegie Mellon University.
Today’s hero is Dr. Genevieve Bell, Intel Fellow. You can read her official bio here, and find her presentations and videos online, talking about people, technology, culture, and the future possibilities of our digital selves.
She is a a collaborator, a leader, a thinker, a visionary, and my friend. She is also a damn fine anthropologist and relentless fighter for what’s right for technology and the people who work within it.
She is only the second woman to be appointed an Intel fellow in over 40 years. And I am pleased to be able to publicly thank her for what she’s accomplished.
