Who was a woman you looked up to when you were *specifically* in elementary school--and in real life? Doesn't have to be deep. Me first: pastor's wife played tambourine, sang backup vocals and had curly hair when curly hair was in. I wanted to play the tambourine, sing backup vocals and have curly hair too.

My grandmother: - was a software engineer for a while - took up teaching in a prison to inmates the world wasn’t willing to give a second chance - ran her own farm - never cared what others thought, believed “love thy neighbor” meant everyone at a time when being gay was still illegal and segregation wasn’t yet

My dads sister. She lived on a 80 acre farm in New England, had so much energy, was always working and doing something. When we got together, she would get down and dirty with the kids and get us doing stuff - sometimes play, sometimes work. She had so much agency and independence.

As an elementary kid is tough, I felt I was always changing my mind. Likely my mom, grandmother, and step mom. Even if you had ask person it definitely would have been a woman. The women in my life have taught me how to care for others, it's OK to cry when you're hurt, and more. They're not perfect, but neither am I.

My kindergarten bus driver! I was bussed to school with older kids and she had me sit behind her, talked to me, made sure this one boy wasn’t too much of a bully. When it was my turn to walk the stage at kindergarten graduation (America lol) and say what I wanted to be when I grew up, I, of course, said bus driver.

My mom’s best friend, who introduced me to logic puzzle books, myst (and other logic-based computer games), murder mysteries (esp Agatha Christie and Dick Francis), card games, and so many other things I love that I never would have known about if it wasn’t for her.

I didn’t start looking up to people until around high school. I had two peers that I admired, but they weren’t yet women.

Mrs Walton - my intermediate* school music teacher (pre high-school) We were just getting old enough for life to start getting slightly autonomous, and potentially exciting. She smoked, had a gravely jazz voice, and controlled an orchestra with the sort of deft "in the know" cool but in charge manner that left a mark.
