Episode 51: Empowering Women in Tech with Samantha St-Louis

from Microsoft Community Insights Podcast · host Nicholas Chang

Tech does not just need more women, it needs more women who feel free to show up as themselves. We sit down with Samantha St Louis, VP of AI App Innovation and a Microsoft MVP, to talk about what it really looks like to build an AI career, lead AI strategy, and navigate a male-dominated industry without shrinking your personality to fit the room.Her career journey is the proof point. She starts as an  nurse then moves into early health tech, builds her own company, and later levels up through Microsoft Learn and certifications like Power Platform Fundamentals before going deeper into AI engineering and AI architecture. Along the way, she shares candid stories about bias, the quiet gatekeeping that keeps people out, and why soft skills are a real competitive advantage in modern tech.Text Us About the Show
