Happy Ada Lovelace day.

She was the first computer programmer and the first person to understand that computer could also be used for something like music.

Allegra, 10 months ago to IT German

Vor ein paar Tagen erst mit meinem Partner darüber gesprochen und heute wieder - das mich Head Hunter mit Herr statt Frau Marx anschreiben ist fast eher die Regel als die Ausnahme.
In meinem LinkedIn Profil steht mein Vorname sowie Pronomen.
Für mich ist das unfassbar respektlos, gerade in dem professionellen/beruflichen Kontext.
Wie sieht das bei anderen #Frauen in der #IT aus? Passiert das bei euch auch so häufig? Wie geht ihr damit um?

I figured it was finally time for a new #introduction post, so here goes.

Hi, I’m Deanna (they/them) :blobfoxwave:​. I’m nonbinary and genderfluid. I’ve moved around Europe a lot, before finding my home in #Finland. I have #misophonia and I’ve been dealing with #LongCovid since mid 2020.

I really enjoy #travelling, although with the #ClimateCrisis I try to minimise my carbon emissions when travelling. I love #music and #musicals, and I’m always happy to get recommendations. I also really like #baking and #cooking (mostly #vegan). Other interests include #DoctorWho and #origami.

I work as a physicist studying some of the cool stuff that happened in the early universe. I’m very passionate about science #outreach and I’ve been doing #cosmology livestreams - called #CupOfCosmology - since late 2015 (link in bio). I'm also open about my struggles with #MentalHealth in academia, and my experience as #LGBTQInSTEM and as a (perceived) #WomanInSTEM.

I love meeting new people, so feel free to follow and interact!
