In this episode, the first part of our two part discussion, Sai and I talk about her career journey and about how she gives back to the community in terms of educating young people in cyber safety but also about jobs in STEM.

Sailakshmi Santhanakrishnan: a passionate advocate at the crossroads of cybersecurity, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles, and Al ethics. Her mission is deeply personal - to blend sustainability with innovation and shape a digital world that's secure and welcoming for everyone. As a board member of Empowering Women as Leaders (EWL) and the proud co-founder of Welnspire.Guru, a mentorship platform for the next generation, her work extends beyond simple advocacy.
