On March 18th we were honored to have Gitanjali Rao, TIME magazine's first ever "Kid of the Year," as the guest speaker for our noon meeting! She spoke about her astonishing work using technology to tackle issues ranging from contaminated drinking water to opioid addiction and cyberbullying, and about her mission to create a global community of young innovators to solve problems the world over. “Observe, brainstorm, research, build and communicate to find your inner innovator.” Her brilliant mind and generous spirit shone through, along with her inspiring message to other young people: don’t try to fix every problem, just focus on one that excites you.

“If I can do it,” she said, “anybody can do it.”
