What if I told you that no two people on this planet share the exact same cultural identity? That sounds impossible, doesn't it? But it's true. And that realization started for me in the most unexpected way. I moved to Australia in 2014 as a skilled migrant and joined a fascinating team of people working in the area of education and intercultural understanding.

And I thought, well, there were some odd characters in computer science at Duke, and that's okay. There weren't very many women, and in particular, there weren't that many technical women. It was like a boy's debate club. You'd go into the meetings and you had to, you know, have your points and know wh ...
