The accomplishments of TVNewsCheck’s annual Women in Technology honorees, including 2014 award winner Renu Thomas (second from left), were celebrated at the NAB Show Tuesday in Las Vegas. Thomas, Disney ABC Network Group’s SVP of technology and operations, was lauded for her accomplishments navigating some of the most difficult and frustrating shoals in television engineering. Thomas said she encourages young women to go into engineering so that women in technology don’t have to be celebrated. “It’s just going to be a fact of life.” Thomas was joined by (l-r):TVNewsCheck Publisher Kathy Haley and Women to Watch honorees Tania Paz, VP of digital media operations and technology at Telemundo Networks; and Ann Marie Rohaly, director of accessibility, policy and standards for Microsoft’s Corporate Accessibility Group.
