Tech baes loading…
In honor of Black Women’s History Month, we’re celebrating the brilliant baddies thriving in the booming tech industry where Black women make up only 01.7% of the workforce (according to AnitaB.Org).
Knowing this, it’s essential for us to showcase tech titans like Bozoma Saint John, Michelle James, Kimberly Bryant, Kelsey Davis, Rachel Spivey, Angel Rich, Mattie Reynolds, and Carrie Bernans shifting the culture in the diversity-starved industry.
HelloBeautiful and MadameNoire teamed up to highlight these melanin magic makers with their “Our Women To Know: Tech Titans” cover celebrating Black women in tech making a difference in their communities and industry.
Check out the Tech Titan features below:

“The air gets very thin at the top. So, the advice I give is to find your circle. Rely on them. Tell them the truth. And in that way, you’ll have a corner that you can go to and feel good in.”
Michelle James – Director of Culture & Community Marketing, Instagram & Facebook at Meta

“I’m confident. I’m secure. I’m intelligent. I know what I’m talking about. I’m contributing to the environment. I’ve reinvented myself several times in my career. I can kind of take all of the things that I’ve done in culture across these various industries and really make a big impact.”

“I wanted to try to test those waters and create a way for other women like me to also have an opportunity to participate as well. My soft place to land is always centered on my role as a mother to my daughter.”
Kelsey Davis – Founder/CEO of CLLCTVE

“We know that opportunity isn’t everywhere, even though talent is. I truly do believe that Black founders, Black people can probably solve 99% of the world’s problems because of the level of connectivity that we have to them.”

“That is what makes me proud every day to wake up, to go to work, knowing that I’m serving my purpose and helping so many other people through their careers. As someone who started at Google and didn’t see many people who look like them at the company at that time, you can do it. You can push through.”
Angel Rich – Founder/CEO of Credit Stacker

“Anyone who has a dime in their pocket should also have the financial literacy to go along with it. I think someone looking to get into the tech space, should have the audacity to dream ridiculously.”
Mattie Reynolds – Lead Technical Talent Acquisition Partner

“The personal challenges that I’ve experienced as a black woman in the technology spaces, it starts at the gate. Do your market research, you see what competitors are paying, and you negotiate your compensation.”
Carrie Bernans- Actress, Stuntwoman, Filmmaker, Venture Capitalist

“Investing in the tech space was something very important to me in an industry mostly dominated by white men.”
