Sky Eno, a 2021 graduate of Wentworth Institute of Technology with degrees in Computer Information Systems and Business Management, is featured in the December 2025 issue of IEEE Women in Engineering Magazine. The profile, titled "Turning Challenges Into Lessons," explores Eno's rapid career progression and the "legacy of opportunity" that drives her work as a software development leader and university lecturer.

In the piece, Eno-who now leads two software development teams at a Fortune 100 firm-credits much of her resilience to the mentorship she received as a student. She specifically highlights the guidance of Wentworth Professor Dr. Cindy Stevens, noting that Stevens' advice on how to navigate complex workplace dynamics and choose her battles wisely was instrumental early in her career.

Beyond professional advice, the article explores Eno's personal motivation, which she describes as a "legacy of opportunity". She reflects on her family's background, framing her own success as a balance between "what you inherit and what you build".

Now a lecturer at UMass Boston, Eno discusses how she applies these lessons to the next generation. The feature details her commitment to representation in the classroom, relating her belief that "when you see someone like you succeed, it makes the path feel possible."
