What movies changed your life?
Or maybe inspired you to take a leap that you would've never thought to take.

To take it maybe one step further, how have these (or this) movies had an impact on you as an entrepreneur?

The 90s movie Contact based off Sagans novel. Inspired me to be a woman in STEM when I was young. I thought the main character was so inspiring and wanted to be just like her (Ellie).

I did get my bachelors in CS with EE minor but couldn't handle the physics and pressure in being an astronomer like her and just stopped at my bachelors. But I still watch the movie over and over, feel the same wonder and inspiration every time.

Another more recent is, of course, Hidden Figures, but it wasn't life changing like above since I saw it as an adult, but I imagine it would have been if I watched it as a child. This movie still made me cry and inspires me.

Highly recommend both if you like engineering or space.
