Under her expert guidance, she built a network of enthusiastic volunteers to help propel ACM-W forward, in the process creating many new ideas for activities, awards, and scholarships to cultivate and celebrate women seeking careers in computing. Over the last two years, as first Chair of the new ACM-W Council, she has reshaped ACM-W from a grassroots network to a professional community within ACM that contributes to strategic discussions at the highest levels of the organization.
