AppliedTrust's Terry Morreale Joins the National Center for Women in Technology as Acting Chief Technology Officer

 
BOULDER, Colo. -- [April 21, 2011] – Terry Morreale, AppliedTrust Director of Client Services, has been named acting Chief Technology Officer for the National Center for Women in Technology (NCWIT), a nonprofit coalition that works to increase women’s participation in technology and computing.
 
“I am thrilled to be working with NCWIT,” noted Morreale. “The mission of this organization is very important to me, and I’m glad to be able to provide technical leadership to help NCWIT launch into the next phase of its growth,” she added.
 
Morreale’s primary directive will be to provide strategic technical leadership within the organization as it continues to expand its reach in promoting the role of women in technical fields. Her relationship with NCWIT was forged through AppliedTrust’s involvement as a member of the organization’s Entrepreneurial Alliance, a group of companies that encourages growing tech companies to participate in the movement to increase the number of women in technical roles. The Alliance recently responded to President Obama’s call to action to promote high-growth entrepreneurship across the country and will be working with the Startup America Partnership to ensure that high-tech startups have the research, practices, and community necessary to create and maintain a diverse and inclusive technical culture.
