About this event

International Women’s Day (IWD) occurs on March 8th every year. It marks a moment to celebrate and provide visibility for the incredible contributions of women around the world and is a call to action for accelerating gender parity.
IWD is Women Techmaker's annual event campaign where our community hosts events in March and April. We create connections, educate and inspire, and recognize that we still have a ways to go to close the gender gap.
Theme: #ProgressNotPerfection
This year our theme celebrates all kinds of progress - big or small - and the strength we demonstrate when we don’t let fear hold us back from following our dreams.

Welcome	Welcome to our 2022 International Women's Day Event - in Historic Downtown Kissimmee and Violet's Garage
My Transformation from Technophobe to Technophile	Learn about how Gwenny Warnick transformed her career from music teacher to technologist Gwenny currently works as a Cloud Engineer and is a Google Developer Expert (GDE) in Google Cloud Platform. She is a career-changer into tech with a passion for DevOps, machine learning, and improving diversity and inclusion in STEM. Gwenny is a yoga teacher and keen vegan cook, endlessly searching for delicious new recipes to try and technical concepts to learn.
Boostrap and Focus Your Next Venture with Google Design Sprints	Presented by Charis Horner The Google Design Sprint is a proven methodology for solving problems through designing, prototyping, and testing ideas with users. Design Sprints quickly align teams under a shared vision with clearly defined goals and deliverables. This process can add value to startups and enterprise engineering teams. In this talk, we’ll provide an overview of how Design Sprints helps you gain a 360-degree perspective early in your project, how you plan the event, and tips on execution. Looking forward to connecting with you!
Personal Perspectives on Progress Not Perfection (Plus Pizza)	Featuring Nilsangel - A Personal Life Coach, Health Advisor, and a Transformation Speaker Lauren DiSalvo, Software Developer and more!
Power your apps with Gmail, Google Drive, Calendar, Docs, Sheets, Slides & more!	Ever want to integrate Google technologies into the web & mobile apps you [or your developer teams] build for your organization or your customers'? Most Google Workspace applications like Gmail, Google Drive, Calendar, Docs, Sheets, and Slides have a developer API. In this session, we explore each Workspace productivity tool, giving you an idea of its developer component, provide insight on use cases, and show some code demonstrating how to access its data & functionality. In addition to REST APIs, there's also Google Apps Script, the Workspace serverless platform providing an easier on-ramp to programmatic Workspace access. Using Workspace APIs in simple scripts is one thing. It's another thing altogether if you wish to deploy apps to the cloud without having to worry about virtual machines, getting them connected to the Internet, figuring out operating systems, databases, security, and so on. Wouldn't it be great if you could just deploy code and make it globally available in under a minute? Attendees will also get a quick introduction to Google Cloud serverless platforms that deliver EXACTLY THAT, giving users the easiest & fastest way to deploy code with the least amount of effort. This session wraps-up with some inspirational examples of what you can build. With all this knowledge, you can begin to leverage the power of Google Cloud, whether Workspace, GCP, or both, in your own apps!
