For #InVinoFab episode no. 45, we talk to Tara Hughes about an issue that you may have struggled with one in your professional life -- Imposter Syndrome! It’s become a passion and ongoing project for Tara who has been asked to give presentations on the topic. The response has continued to be incredible and emotions have risen in her work; however, Tara shares how she currently still grapples with her own Imposter feelings. We have no doubt that others will be able to relate to this topic.

We discuss the role of shared services and information security on campus, #ImposterSyndrome, and career pathways for working in IT in highered. If you are a minority in the room or field, like in information technology, how do you bring your full self and diverse perspectives to the table? We talk about the reality of how to support equity and bridging the services of IT, HR, and Student Services for a campus environment.
