Originally from Michigan, Blair Page began her entry into tech work thanks to her father’s dirtbike business. “I specifically selected computer-focused classes in middle and high school, learning alongside the family business as my mother got a business degree. My dad focused on the dirtbike shop, and my mom was learning the business aspects,” she says. “I conceptualized the parts catalogs and how that would potentially go into a website before I left high school. I would mess around on hackthissite.com, read many CTRL+ALT+DEL comics, and do small projects and run private Ragnarok Online servers.”
