I Am So Proud And Grateful To

As A Mom, What I Found So Disturbing Were The Things That Were Being Said On A National Stage - I Mean, Literally On The Stage And Off The Stage, Around The Convention About Women, About Minorities, About Muslims, About Immigrants.

We Need Women Who Are At The Head Of A Boardroom, Like At The Head Of The White House, At The Head Of Kind Of Major Scientific Enterprises So That Little Girls Everywhere Can Then Think, You Know What? I Can Do That, I Want To Do That, I Will Do That.

When I First Held My Daughter, Right After She Was Born, I Felt Like It Was The Moment I'd Been Waiting My Whole Life For, And It Just Felt Even More Miraculous Than I Ever Could Have Imagined.

Celebrate Those Who Have The Courage To Be Second, Because I Do Think That Often There Really Is This Claustrophobic Pressure To Innovate Instead Of To Adapt.

I've Always Been Incredibly Proud Of Both Of My Parents And Proud Of The Work I Had Done Privately As A Person, Professionally And Academically.
