WITI Women | Sabrina Horn

4. Who has been the most influential person in your life? Why?
My father.

5. What lessons have you learned that would be valuable to women beginning their careers in technology?
Life is not about achieving balance, but about making the right choices at the right time. There is no glass-ceiling, the only thing stopping women from getting ahead is a self-fulfilling prophecy that that they can't get ahead because of barriers in front of them. Just get around them. Try not to get too emotional in business settings - it does hurt credibility, but let your hair down every once in a while so people see you are real and have feelings.

6. What new technology do you believe will have the most positive impact on the world in the next 20 years? The most negative impact?
The internet will have the most positive impact. The convergence of humans and computers may have a negative impact in 20 years.
