We Learned a TON from Microsoft's Women Leaders

On September 25th PowerToFly's Director of Customer Success Cristina Duke and Talent Advocate Megan Alexander flew to Bellevue in Washington to host a special evening with the women business & technology leaders from the Microsoft Azure AI Platform organization.

Microsoft speakers at the event included:

• Ria Kapila, Chief of Staff
• Aniththa Umamahesan, Program Manager
• Julie Stevenson, Data Scientist
• Sindhura Bandhakavi, Principal Software Engineering Manager
• Sophia Liu, Data Scientist
• Vinitra Swamy, Software Engineer

• After this event with Microsoft I learned that work life balance really exists at this company
• It was a great event! There is a clear need for networking events like this. I learned a lot about Azure team and felt like I had a great opportunity to connect with the members of the team and Microsoft recruiters in general. My favorite part was a panel format with Q&A.
• Extremely well organized right from Parking, to providing nametags, notebooks, and a wide selection of Hors d'oeuvres.
