Synopsis

A retro romp through the innovative eighties . . .

Christina Como knows her way around the ER and a computer room.

After a revealing truth and a shocking rejection leave her with shattered dreams, Christina sets out to reclaim her life. Her passion and drive outpace naysayers and bullies, pushing her beyond family expectations and traditional gender roles.

Silicon Valley East is the inspirational story of Christina’s reckoning with external forces and those within. Set in the early 1980s, at the dawn of explosive innovations in health tech, Christina’s journey leads her from her hometown in Delaware to Manhattan to Philadelphia’s Main Line, once called the Silicon Valley of the East by Ronald Reagan. Jet-setting across the country, Christina navigates the male-dominated early computer landscape and finds herself at the forefront of the future as she launches hospitals into the digital age. Christina knows lives can be saved, yet the tech world is not moving fast enough.

There are a hundred reasons why she shouldn't proceed. But there’s one compelling reason why she must.
