How does one go from a small town in Louisiana to a leading role at Google, with a detour through rocket science? In our latest episode, we welcome Terysa Ridgeway, who shares her unique journey and offers a fresh perspective on artificial intelligence. Terysa's story is a testament to the power of nurturing creativity alongside technical skills, as she recounts her childhood passion for math and science, guided by an encouraging high school counselor. She breaks down AI in a way that's easy for kids to grasp, describing it as a "fake brain" that needs human training, and uses familiar examples like virtual assistants and personalized content to demonstrate how AI is already woven into the fabric of everyday life.

Get ready for a thrilling ride through tech trivia! Terysa joins us as we spotlight some of the most fascinating moments in technology history. Terysa also shares her adventures as a bestselling children's author of the "Terysa Solves It" series, where she combines her love for storytelling with STEM education, aiming to ignite curiosity and creativity in young readers.

Aspiring young technologists are in for a treat as we explore how to inspire the next generation through AI storytelling and coding education.
