At the age of 10 I told my family I wanted to be a boss off a team before I was 30... well 1 year away from 30 I managed to reach my life long goal I became a Chief Technical officer. Not only was this an amazing mile stone but I feel I showed women in our industry we can be top dog!
Okay let's be honest as a developer it can be hard to reach the C level. Not only does it take a lot of will power but it also takes a lot of experience to prove to a company you have what it takes. For me I was fortune enough to be taken on as a CTO after I was doing a contract for a start up. It was a massive step and one I'll never forget.
