In this special episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Nikki Barua, Interim CEO of Latinas in Tech and serial entrepreneur. We talked about AI, leadership, legacy, and the upcoming Latinas in Tech Summit, happening May 28–30 in San Francisco, CA. If you’re in the Bay Area (or need a reason to visit), this is one to show up for.
🎯 What we covered:
Why Nikki would love to see everyone’s zone of genius floating above their heads
How AI isn’t just a threat, it’s an invitation to reinvent ourselves
The role of positive peer pressure in upskilling and growth
What makes the Latinas in Tech Summit feel like a career accelerator and a family reunion
Concrete ways men and allies can show up, sponsor, and support Latina talent in tech
How Nikki uses AI as a thinking partner for complex decisions
Tips on energy management, introversion, and building real human connection in a digital world
🗣️ Would you like to connect with other Latinos in Tech?
