Breaking Through Bytes

Reviews / Votes

"How to give voice and space to women in tech has been an ongoing priority among educators, practitioners, and policymakers. How to inspire new generations to join the STEM space is the next, related question. Kelly offers her unique contribution to both issues telling powerful stories of female pioneers in tech with her unique style. Blending her personal and professional experience with a profound knowledge of the tech space, Kelly will take curious readers by hand behind the scenes of innovations women worked tirelessly for. As an educator and researcher, as well as a mum of two girls, I can only be grateful for Kelly's work and advocacy."

"Hats off to the blockbuster video gaming pioneer Kelly Vero, legendary icon at the forefront of immersive technology, metaverse development, and transmedia storytelling. Vero has gifted the world with a book that sweeps through history as an inspiring celebration of the women who have dared to innovate, create, and redefine what's possible, illuminating the powerful intersection of logic and creativity. Through compelling stories of historical figures and modern trailblazers, Vero shows how women have persistently broken barriers, blending intellect with imagination to shape our world. Vero's book not only honors female pioneers whose contributions have been historically misunderstood, dismissed, or attributed to male counterparts but it also serves as a call to action for contemporary society to recognize and support diverse talents and to embrace neurodiversity and interdisciplinary thinking. Breaking Through Bytes is a must-read for anyone who believes in the inherent power of women and in the transformative power of unlocking the full spectrum of human potential."
