In this episode we explore the multifaceted life of Carol Hemmer, a true renaissance woman who harmonizes the rhythm of code with the cadence of poetry. Carol's story unfolds from the most unexpected beginnings—a converted men's bathroom at GE.  Her journey is a rich tapestry of professional challenges, personal growth, and poetic musings that transcend the binary world of software engineering. Listen in as Carol shares how her steadfast companion, poetry, provides solace and a means to articulate the complex human experience.  Hear the powerful verses she penned, inspired by the pressures her daughters faced growing up, and witness a heartfelt moment as a particular poem is shared aloud for the first time. Tune in for a conversation that celebrates the courage to express oneself, the transformative power of community, and the undeniable impact of mentorship in elevating our talents and dreams.
