We hear about her incredible journey from a nerdy teen installing Linux on the family computer to becoming an outspoken voice in the tech community. Growing up in Texas with conservative parents, Kris faced many challenges that helped mold her into the person who she is today. 

Kris leaves us with a few big lessons today:

• Advocate for yourself, it’s OK to speak up • Obscurity is everyone’s secret superpower • Be proud of yourself
