You know, where I grew up, nobody went to Yale Law School.

I knew I was a woman of color.

I came from an immigrant family.

I didn't have that much.

And when I applied the first time, you know, my junior, senior year in college didn't get in.

By the second time, didn't get in.

The third time, you know, got waitlisted.

And I remember I just got on a train and I went to New Haven.

I knocked down the Dean's door.

I was like, you have to let me in.

From ABC, it's no limits.

I'm Rebecca Jarvis.

And each week we're talking to the most bold and influential women playing at the top of their game.

Trying to demystify success and what it really takes to get there and all the trade-offs,

whether you're looking for answers or you just want to hear a good story, you're in the right place. You might be surprised to learn that in the mid-90s, women made up nearly half of those

working in computer science, but today it's less than 25%.

So what happened? On today's episode, we're taking a look at how the tech industry has changed over time and why that change grew to exclude women.

And you're going to meet one woman who's working to turn it around. Her name is Reshma Sejani. She's a first-generation American,

the daughter of refugees, and the founder and CEO of Girls Who Code, a nonprofit that's working

to close the gender gap in computer science and technology. And so far, they've reached

almost 90,000 girls across all 50 states.

Reshma Sojani, welcome to No Limits.
