The Project Woman to Watch

Published: Sunday, 29 April 2018

The Project called me a “Woman to Watch” and shot this short video.  It contains footage of a child going to school remotely using Teleport, photographs from when I was a kid, and shots of me working with my team in the office.  The video expires on 25 July 2018.
