Hi - I'm Laurie Segall. I'm our tech correspondent at CNN. I've covered startups and innovation for the last six years, interviewing everyone from the founders of Instagram to the founders of Twitter. I also work on a wide range of series that focus on the intersection of technology and society. They cover everything from sex and drugs in Silicon Valley to the implications of revenge porn, a type of cyber harassment. I'm most interested in topics we haven't talked about enough - whether it's mental illness in the tech community or an inside look at failure and hardships of building a successful business. I'm a champion for underdogs and untold stories. Ask me anything!

@lauriesegallcnn Hi there! Thanks for taking the time today. What do you think is the biggest misconception about Silicon Valley? And what is one of the lesser known stories that you discovered that you think should be more widely told?
