When I first joined the ranks of Nerd Nite bosses in 2013, I hit the ground running. One of the first ideas I had was to have an evening where we bring together some brilliant women from around town and celebrate their knowledge, experience and achievements in one evening. 2 years later, I finally was able to make it a reality and I couldn’t be happier with the success of the first “Nerd Nite Ladies Nite.”

Special shout out to Tairi Perez, Kelly Romano, and Emily Dovydaitis for giving incredibly charming presentations. (It should also be noted that Tairi has now become the first woman in the 11 year history of Nerd Nite around the world to give a presentation while pregnant.)

I was also able to highlight my friend Lauren Gibaldi who got her first book published by Harper Collins. Click here to check it out: http://www.harpercollins.com/9780062302229/the-night-we-said-yes
