After nine years in the healthcare IT consulting business, with two of those years at Liberty IT Solutions, my manager approached me with a promotional opportunity to become a portfolio director. I had turned down a similar offer before. This time my manager applied more pressure, expressing encouragement from not only himself, but his manager who would become the Chief Operation Officer (COO) and colleagues who would become my peers. I asked, “Why me?” He responded with “Because you’re a minority and you’re a female.”

As a former product manager at Big Four, I filed an EEOC charge of discrimination based on my race and disabilities. I allege that Big Four failed to provide reasonable accommodations for my disabilities, subjected me to a hostile work environment, retaliated against me by placing me on a Performance Improvement Plan, kept me on this plan until my termination, and wrongfully terminated my employment. I claim that Big Four retaliated against me by placing me on a Performance Improvement Plan until my termination. I also allege that I acted as an internal whistleblower, filing complaints regarding racist or ableist language used by supervisors and coworkers and regarding the sexual assault of a coworker.
