Below is a list of other Latinas in computing who we have tracked down via the web and word-of-mouth, as we are always in search of good role models! We hope that some day all Latinas in computing will be part of a mailing list so we can share experiences and advice. Please let us know if you know of other Latinas who should be on this list by sending email to latinas-owner.
