    "Ada Lovelace. There is much to admire about her: her strict analytical thinking coupled with the spirit of creative vision, which recognized a possibility for computers to do more than simply calculate at a time when it was considered revolutionary. Her ability to bridge between disciplines and see the connections between maths and science and even to poetry resonates within me. I also appreciate how she pursued intellectual passions in the face of huge gender barriers in her time."
