My boss is a woman and talks about that all the time. She mentioned that it's standard for women to downplay their abilities in any workplace, and that she had to kick this habit as well in order to be taken seriously in a technological field, and that she still does have to fight in that regard. Perhaps something to think about - I know hearing it made me think. Be bold! I know what kind of rut that is, especially when comparing myself to my (shitty) engineering roommates. But be your best you, and I think you'll be fine.I'm not really good at selling myself. I'm used to playing down my abilities instead of exaggerating, gotta get rid of that habit.
