When she was a little girl, Béatrix wanted to become engineer and researcher, even if she loved also Literature, History and Latin. After an Engineering degree and a PhD in Computer Science, she had the opportunity to work in very different domains such as Archaeology or Telecommunications. Béatrix thinks that key aspects at work are innovation (she filed patents), people you are working with or meeting, team spirit and mood.

Hello I am Tidjani, Electronics and Software Engineer at Nokia. Since early age, I was curious and I have always wanted to fix things: my dad stereo, video tape recorder, etc. The harder it was, the funnier it was to study the problem and find how to make these devices work. MacGyver, they used to call me at home. Engineering is all about addressing challenges, discovering and learning technologies and all the possibilities to create and achieve things. It is all about being a true actor in building the world of today and tomorrow.

When she is not posting/youtubing/instagraming or hashtaging, Marie is usually in front of her sewing machine. Or learning how to do aerial hoop. Or taking a webinar on cyber security! She visited 20 countries in the world so far and doesn't plan to stop before she saw them all. An ecofriendly advocate she firmly believes that the children will be the ones to save our planet and she can't wait to see them succeed.

Melissa Rancourt, Chairman & Founder. Melissa is an engineer herself and loves the Big Bang TV show. So much so that she does a workshop based on it which has proved to be one of the favourites of the girls. Melissa is a true science geek and doesn't mind who knows this!

She’s an all or nothing girl, therefore most likely to be found either out training for a half marathon… or lazing around reading her third book this week. She is a Gemmologist and Diamond Grader by profession, a total nerd, and likes to think of herself as a semi-professional dumpling & massage tester too.
