Susan Barnes is a veteran businesswoman and has been working the finance and tech industry since the early 80's. Having become a prominent leader in a field dominated by men, she was both greatly positively influenced by her male coworkers, most notably Steve Jobs, but also had to endure incredible amounts of sexism to rise to the top.
