Aarti Gadhia - Doing Real Work in Bridging the Diversity Gap in Cybersecurity Leadership

Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) - Portland, Oregon Chapter

Our special guest today is Aarti Gadhia. She is a highly successful cybersecurity professional who has worked in various leadership roles in sales and marking for well-known companies such as Bugcrowd, Carbon Black, Trend Micro and Sophos. Aarti is also the founder of Standout to Lead and SHE (Sharing Her Empowerment). Aarti is passionate about bridging the diversity gap in STEM and in leadership. She recently presented at our OWASP AppSec Pacific Northwest Conference on the topic of Women in Appsec: Advice to Differentiate Your Skills. As a podcast bonus, you will learn about how a childhood lesson in making roti with her mother helped shape Aarti to become the strong leader she is today.
We want to say thank you to Bugcrowd for being one of our sponsors for the inaugural OWASP Pacific Northwest Application Security Conference 2021.
