How does one go from a career in tech to the opera? Hear Esther Massimini's story this week on the podcast. She served in the Air Force from 1979 to 1984. She was one of few women to work in tech. At the time the government was on the leading edge of the changes in technology and she had the opportunity to see how things changed and have an impact on these changes. She continued her career in tech after leaving the military spending most of her career at Honeywell. She got involved in Opera though a veteran organization that highlights the stories of service members through opera.
