| | | | Digital divides in the age of remote work In this month's newsletters, we've been celebrating Women in Tech history. We've already acknowledged the achievements of Alice H. Parker, an African-American inventor known for her patent for a gas furnace. As we navigate the changing seasons here in Baltimore and face biting temperatures, Parker's invention remains relevant and important. As I report for Technical.ly, I've been reflecting on how grateful I am for the ability to work from home. While Xfinity WiFi sometimes gives me trouble, I'm fortunate to have the option to work remotely. I know many others face similar struggles with internet connectivity. Recently, I came across an article in a local publication that introduced me to Kenya Asli, the interim director of broadband and digital equity for the City of Baltimore's Office of Information and Technology. Asli, an alum of Morgan State University, has been working since October 2023 to formulate a strategy for the city's broadband efforts and investments. Her goal is to address the significant broadband connectivity gap in Baltimore, which affects tens of thousands of households without a wireline connection to the internet.
As someone who has fiber-optic access at home, I'm grateful to be among the households with somewhat reliable internet access. I'm also grateful to see women like Asli working to make a positive impact in our community. Let's continue to celebrate the achievements of local women who are making a difference, not just this month, but every month.
