Welcome back to SHPE Out Loud! In our 29th episode of the "50 Stories for 50 Years" series, producer Alex Wait sits down with Karen Santos, a Cloud Platform Specialist at IBM and the current Board Secretary of SHPE. Born in Mexico and raised in San Diego, Karen’s journey from receiving her first Mac computer at age 10 to becoming an influential leader in STEM is nothing short of inspiring.
Karen shares how her parents equipped her with street smarts and business acumen, paving the way for her to pursue a career in engineering.
