\"Speak<\/a>This blog is part of our on-going Women in Technology series.<\/em><\/p>\n

Kira Curtis<\/a> is a Supervisor in Global Operations, IT Support and has been at Consilio for a year. She has been working in the IT industry for about 10 years.<\/em><\/p>\n

How did you get into this industry?<\/h2>\n

I have always been interested in computers, helping people and fixing problems. I began my career in IT working as a Helpdesk technician at a call center and have enjoyed working in support-related roles ever since.<\/p>\n

What were some pivotal moments in your career that helped to get you to where you are today?<\/h2>\n

Having an open mind, drive, and willingness to learn and making good social networking connections within the company.<\/p>\n

Have you ever noticed a time in your career where your gender proved to differentiate you?<\/h2>\n

Many years ago, I had a situation where a customer refused my assistance and instead asked to be transferred to a male colleague. In that particular instance, I was the more senior\/experienced technician. Since working at Consilio however, everyone has been very accepting, wonderful, and welcoming.<\/p>\n

What is your advice for someone working in a predominately male workplace?<\/h2>\n

Stay true to yourself and who you are as a person. Speak up when you have something to say and say it with confidence.<\/p>\n

What do you think companies could do to motivate more women to pursue careers in technology?<\/h2>\n

Not only promote but follow through with showing that regardless of being in a mostly or all-male environment, they will be seen, heard, and given a chance to show what they can do.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
