GGD Edinburgh in News

Hurrah! Our forthcoming Girl Geek Scotland event is mentioned in today’s San Francisco Chronicle ;-)

“Some teenagers rebel against their parents by getting tattoos, body piercings, having a child out of wedlock, or abusing drugs,” writes Emma McGrattan, senior vice president of engineering at Ingres. “I rebelled by acquiring a degree in electronic engineering.”

How about that ladies!
