Such kind words to start a fresh week, post-SD Design Trek! Thanks so much, @Vilavanh ! I can’t say it’s easy but when you have a vision, there is no stopping it. Especially when women help one another rise. Grateful for you and my powerhouse team of female co-drivers! – at San Diego, CA
Absolutely impressed with what these ladies put together. I’m in awe with @sypers; she’s a full time employee, Co-Founder, pregnant, and still lead, planned and executed this amazing 3 day @sddesigntrek event! You can’t tell me women don’t have superpowers! #sddesigntrek2019
