Catalyzing Change: Empowering Underprivileged Young Women and LGBTQ+ Voices in STEM

关于我们

Our mission is to empower underprivileged young women and members of the LGBTQ+ community by providing them with the tools and opportunities to thrive in the world of software engineering and technology. Our goal is to enable them to reach their full potential and contribute meaningfully to the tech industry. With extensive experience in the STEM field, our Board has directly witnessed the challenges that girls and young women encounter, constraining their options and future expectations. This is especially pronounced for individuals hailing from disadvantaged backgrounds. We have set out to change that. FemSTEM is the cultivation of a shared vision for a better access, brighter, more equitable future in STEM for all. FemSTEM will provide multiple annual scholarships to students who identify as women and/or LGBTQ and are pursuing studies in coding and technology. Financially supporting their educational opportunities in technology at their academic institutions is one of FemSTEM’s most impactful ways of carrying out our mission. FemSTEM supports an inclusive community where women and members of the LGBTQ community can network, collaborate, and learn from each other. One on One mentoring is a cornerstone of our program where each of the Scholarship recipient will be assigned a Mentor in the field of technology. The Mentors will provide guidance to the Scholarship recipient in shaping their educational and professional journey.

    It was a pleasure to be a shark tank judge for the students final innovative Moonshot solutions to improve technology in the surgical field. Harvard Medical School's HMS MEDscience is an amazing program for high school students interested in careers medicine and biomedical fields. Four teams of students pitched and demoed their prototypes to cure Lung Cancer. In this intensive 2 week program students worked as a team to design and build working AI surgical robotic tools. FemSTEM is partnering with Moonshot and HMS MEDscience to offer scholarships to needy and deserving high schoolers to attend this program.

    🌟 Exciting Reflections on Asymmetrical Knowledge and Success 🌟 Hey LinkedIn fam! 👋🏼 I've been pondering the concept of asymmetrical knowledge and its role in the success of some of the world's wealthiest individuals. 🤔💡 Let's dive in and explore this fascinating subject together! Asymmetrical knowledge is all about having access to information or insights that others may not possess. It's like having a secret weapon in your arsenal that can propel you towards success. 💪🏼✨ One of the key steps in utilizing asymmetrical knowledge is continuous learning. Successful individuals have an insatiable thirst for knowledge and actively seek to expand their understanding of various industries, markets, and trends. 📚🎓 By constantly staying informed and learning from experts, they gain unique insights that others may overlook. But it doesn't stop there! Identifying unique opportunities is another crucial aspect. 🌟💼 Successful individuals are adept at recognizing emerging trends, undervalued assets, or untapped markets that others might miss. Armed with their asymmetrical knowledge, they seize these opportunities and turn them into gold. Building strong networks is also a vital step. 🌐🤝 By surrounding themselves with diverse and knowledgeable individuals, successful people gain access to valuable information and insights that are not readily available to others. These connections can prove to be game-changers in their journey towards success. Effective risk management is another key factor. 🎯💼 Asymmetrical knowledge enables successful individuals to make well-informed decisions and navigate risks with confidence. By understanding specific industries or markets on a deep level, they make calculated bets and minimize potential losses. Timing and execution, my friends, are the icing on the cake. ⏰✅ Armed with their asymmetrical knowledge, successful individuals know when to act and how to implement their strategies effectively. This ability to seize the right opportunities at the right time can lead to remarkable financial gains and overall success.
