Reshma Saujani is the founder of Girls Who Code and Moms First. In 2009, Reshma became the first Indian-American woman to run for Congress, and lost. That loss was the impotence for her greatest creation: Girls Who Code, a nonprofit that helps girls learn STEM, coding, and all things technology.

Reshma saw firsthand during her run for Congress how few opportunities were given to girls in computing, and she wanted to even the playing field. From a table at her favorite restaurant in New York City, The Well, Reshma shares her many obstacles on the way to success, and what she feels she is uniquely poised to do in the next chapter of her life.
