I'm looking for game developers that are women that might want to be on a podcast about women in games. The podcast is the creation of my 16 year old daugher who is an aspiring game dev and software engineer.

I receive quite a few DMs from people reluctant to apply for entry level gfx programming roles because they don't feel they're good or know enough, if their portfolio is good enough, don't know what to expect etc. This way of viewing things is not very helpful: 1/4
