Discover the untold story of Grace Hopper, the mother of computer programming, as we pay homage to a woman whose brilliance in STEM reshaped our digital world. Get ready to be inspired by the legacy of a trailblazing mathematician and US Navy Rear Admiral who didn't just break the glass ceiling but shattered it completely, ensuring that computer coding was accessible to all. This month's edition of Love u, Miss u, Bye is a celebration of Women's History Month and a tribute to a woman whose life's work forms the very foundation of the technology we rely on every day.

Embark on a journey through the remarkable achievements of Grace Hopper, as I share anecdotes and insights that illuminate the life of this extraordinary pioneer. With COBOL still at the heart of telecommunications infrastructure, we unpack how Hopper's tenacity led her to overcome a decade of skepticism and mockery, eventually influencing 80% of computer code worldwide. Grace's story isn't just about technology, but about the power of perseverance and the triumph of innovation against all odds. So, tune in and join us for an engaging look at one of the leading figures in the history of computing, and carry forward the spirit of Grace Hopper in your day-to-day tech encounters. Love u, Miss u, Bye.
