This is a special editorial feature that profiles successful women in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. The special section recognizes individuals for their success and accomplishments from the last 18 months.

"Being recognized with the other accomplished women featured in Crain's is both rewarding and humbling," said Katherine Latham. "I'm honored to be in the company of so many women who help their companies and communities encourage the influence and contributions of women in STEM in Chicago."

"While the number of women in STEM-based careers is increasing, which is great progress, there is still a large disparity for women entering these fields," added Latham.
