We The Geeks: Made With Pride
Posted by
on June 23, 2015 at 01:29 PM EDT Last week, the White House celebrated a National Week of Making to honor those who lift up makers and builders across the country. This year, the Week of Making coincided with the White House’s celebrations of LGBT Pride Month.
To recognize the accomplishments of makers and LGBT people in tech, we’ll be hosting our latest episode of We The Geeks, featuring:
- Megan Smith, Chief Technology Officer of the United States
- Alexis Lewis, a teen inventor and patent-holder
- Leanne Pittsford, Founder of Lesbians Who Tech
- Alex Surasky-Ysasi; Social Innovator & Engineer at Satellite Shelter
Hear from these amazing innovators and join us for “We The Geeks: Made With Pride” on Wednesday, June 24 at 1:00 p.m. ET by joining us at www.whitehouse.gov/we-the-geeks.
