Recognitions such as these should be touted, as they attribute to a bigger picture that ignites women and encourages diversity. These women are the change makers we depend on to influence transformations far beyond the industry.”

  • Wonderful news, congrat’s to Jen and OWC! The company has an enthusiastic and helpful staff from sales to service, which reflects the qualities of its leadership. I bought my first Apple product, an iMac Snowball with OSX (10.1 or 10.2) in 2003 and was a convert on the spot. The Snowball is still around, a great photo storage unit, and I’m on my third laptop, a MBP revved up of course, and serviced, by OWC. OWC, keep up the great work!

  • Well done Jen! OWC has been a favorite company of mine for many years. Been retired for 10 years now but still look at your on line adverts and will continue to purchase as well as recommend your great “store”. Please keep up the great work you have begun and congrats!
