Mark Shulman

Audio Tech

It’s been a while but I wanted to reach out and express my gratitude for our experiences at Green Connections Radio. I looked up to your confidence and passion with admiration. You and the many brilliant women you hosted on the podcast inspired me to hold my head high as a woman in tech.

It was my pleasure and honor to work with you and have a hand in the production of your podcast. So much has changed since we last spoke, but working with you really shaped my path. I left DC and school to work as an acoustician. So much of what I learned from the podcast (both working on it and the content itself) was helpful on that journey.

I appreciate the hand you and Green Connections had in shaping my path.
