It's not easy being green.

Sure I’ve made it look easy...

But the truth is “...greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world.” 1 John 4:4

”What's a major fear you had to overcome in your professional development? How did you go about it and how did it change things for you?”

It was the time of the Swedish bikini team making known that it was fed up with sexual harassment that I stepped forward to challenge the accompanied sexism of being of the first and only female ever mechanical designer on an engineering team of a global corporation. I needed the job. It paid fairly well and I had kids to feed. But I was fed up with the daily assault of inappropriate comments, vulgar language, and supervisors offices lined with xxx pictures. I reported it to HR and suffered their sneering, was ultimately fired for challenging not only their authority but their personal rights while hearing “you will never win and we will deny it till the cows come home” as the door closed shut.

It was a long drawn out battle but kept my self respect. I won. In oh so many ways.

Why yes I do take my tea with cream. Moo.
