Paving the way: Inspiring Women in Payments - A Q&A featuring Cari King
She was the first woman in her family to complete high school and a first-generation college graduate. But, as a single mom on public assistance, Cari King knew that she needed more than a job to improve her situation; she needed a career. However, she did not know any female role models with careers to show her the way. In fact, it wasn’t until she was in her thirties that she first met a woman with a career in technology.

In this edition of our blog, Cari explains why it’s important to continue to expose girls to successful women in the tech industry, even if role models are difficult to find in their own community.
