Neurodivergent women in tech and leadership bring bold ideas, creative problem-solving, and invaluable insights—but they often face unique challenges in navigating today’s professional environments. 

Join us to hear a personal and powerful account from Amy Cerkas, a neurodivergent leader, highlighting the realities of working in tech while managing conditions like ADHD, autism, and dyslexia.
