Representation is so important. I am so happy Hidden Figures celebrates the story of brave, brilliant African-American women in STEM.

And a soapbox side note: If any of you are still trying to figure out what you want to do with your life and like science and tech, give computer science a try! It’s a myth that you have to be a genius to do it- anyone can code. I will be more than happy to talk to you about it or give you advice (I’ve worked at Google and start-ups).
