A Look at Our Event with PagerDuty's Women Leaders
Held at the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce and hosted by PowerToFly's Dionna Smith, this event was a great opportunity for skilled tech professionals to network with one another while learning about PagerDuty's latest projects.
The evening began with a keynote address by Wendy Foster, Director, Engineering, Data Science & Analytics, who shared her own career journey and spoke about life at PagerDuty.
Next up, our attendees were in for a real treat as PagerDuty's Arup Chakrabarti, Director, Infrastructure engaged in a frank fireside chat with one of PagerDuty's customers, in this case Qiana Phillips, Web Engineering Manager from Delta.
The centerpiece of the evening was an in-depth panel discussion featuring several of PagerDuty's women tech leaders and male allies followed by a great audience Q&A. The PagerDuty panelists included:
- Jordan Whitmer, Manager, Enterprise Sales Development
- Margie Verdon, Sr. Customer Success Manager
- Gautam Prabhu, Vice President, Engineering
- Gunjan Kushwaha, Engineering Manager
- Marcus Cooper, Director of Inclusion, Diversity, and Equity
