Kristen Newsome, M.Ed
I started My Sister's Keeper Success Institute because every day that girls don't have the confidence or advocacy to reach their potential, and combat gender and racial stereotypes, the world misses out on their creativity, innovation, and problem-solving. Equity and Inclusion of women of color in STEM with their resilience, creativity, and brilliance is what's missing in this global technology age.
