“Girls don’t do tech.” That was the message Hannah Hua Hayes heard growing up. Instead of following a traditional path into technology, Hannah studied literature, travelled the world, taught in remote mountain communities, embraced different cultures through language, raised bilingual children, and ultimately found her way into immersive technology, storytelling, education, and innovation.
Girls Don’t Do Tech is not a story about breaking rules for the sake of it. It is a story about curiosity — the quiet determination to keep asking questions, exploring new ideas, and refusing to accept limitations placed on you by others. Warm, honest, and deeply personal, this short film explores identity, motherhood, learning, resilience, and the unexpected journeys that shape our lives.
Based on the book Girls Don’t Do Tech: Curiosity, Culture, Motherhood — and the Long Way into Innovation by Hannah Hua Hayes.
