"Just make it look like you've been doing it for years."
That's what Zowie Jennings was told on her first night on the door, the only woman among 60 men. She pulled it off, went home buzzing, and never looked back. Today she's a licensed instructor.
"This is not just a man's industry. This is women as well. We work together."
Security has rarely felt like a room women were invited into. Zowie's proof of how much that's worth changing.
