A memoir about one woman's life in Information Technology

‘It’s such a great read – and I don’t even work in IT. It’s much more than that – it’s a book about tough childhoods; personal growth against the odds; making career choices then learning on the job; following your gut when you feel stuck; great mentors and “other”; taking chances; finding your fun to balance the work – and it’s a great love story!’ — Bev Ryan, Smart Women Publish

‘Hilarious, heartbreaking, and deeply inspiring. At the centre of Carol’s memoir is her remarkable IT career spanning four decades, woven through the story of her journey from a traumatic childhood to building a joyful, adventurous family life. She tells it all with honesty, wit, and warmth. One minute you’re laughing out loud, the next you’re in tears. A beautifully written reminder that resilience, determination, and love can change the course of a life.’ — Irene Farrugia, Good Strategy Consulting

‘Carol, you really are a nerd aren’t you’ — Sharon Tien, Bass Player with the IT Grrrls
