DJ Sharky Sharon","description":"Alright, buckle up, folks! It's time for another wild ride on the Raising a Ruckus Podcast, and boy, do we have a treat for you today. We're about to get a little \u2013 no make that a LOT smarter -- with Dr. Sharon Jones, the tech education rockstar you want to know. Here\u2019s the short version: a former teacher who decided the classroom wasn't enough and went on to found the Dottie Rose Foundation. Why? Because she's on a mission to kick the gender gap's butt in technology. Dr. Jones is the rebel we need, empowering young girls to dive headfirst into the crazy world of STEM. But wait, there's more! She's a globe-trotting speaker and author, dropping knowledge on data analytics, educational practices, and tech like it's her job. Wait\u2026 it is. Her book, "A Recipe for Success Using SAS University: How to Plan Your First Analytics Project," is so good it's being used in curriculums across the country. And when she\u2019s not busy teaching and writing, she\u2019s out collecting awards for all her hard work. We\u2019ll get into all of that, and answer the two burning questions you\u2019re probably asking yourself right now: why would someone so smart agree to be on this program, and what career path almost lured her away from computers. Listen and find out!  Cheers!  ----- Dr. Sharon Jones Dottie Rose Foundation ----- Well-Run Media Website Mistry Projects Website   ","author_name":"Raising A Ruckus","author_url":"https:\/\/sites.libsyn.com\/516598","html":"
