About
Background
Welcome, I'm Ms. Lexie and I am so glad you are here. I believe deeply that female leaders are our future. As a San Francisco native and all-girls school alumna, I have trekked the pursuit of STEM as a woman myself having received a degree in Economics and Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley and now working full-time as a Product Manager. Using a combination of personal experience and technical-expertise, I am determined to arm elementary-aged girls with the STEM superpowers they need to become the disruptors of tomorrow. I believe there is no age limit to understanding entrepreneurship, and exposure to such topics at a younger age is crucial for young women to build skills and confidence in today's fast-paced world.
So, why not start now?
Women hold 8% of CEO positions in the S&P 500. That means 92% of CEO positions in the U.S. are held by men and less than 1 woman holds a CEO position for every man.*

Mission
​
​
Shockingly, as of 2023 in the United States, women hold only 8% of CEO positions in the S&P 500 and make up nearly 30% of the STEM workforce even though women and men may earn degrees at nearly the same rate.
​
So, now that we've opened the door to STEM for women, how can we climb up the staircase?
​My goal is to empower young women to learn about female entrepreneurship and empathy-based leadership. Using my hands-on curriculum, I teach students everything from exploring STEM career paths and bite-sized navigation through the product life cycle, to identifying their unique STEM superpowers.
​My goal is for each student to learn that women can hold positions in STEM at any level because I believe that the world is a better place when all leaders, especially women, have a seat at the table.
