I attribute my success first to resilience and of course intentional growth. As a military spouse it's a long and difficult process where you need to reveal basically your life and career to uncertainty and all of this taught me to be adaptable. With regards to the intentional growth part I think that I just did gave me the technical tools but it's more about the discipline of keep learning and be able to turn all these tools into meaningful impact.

I think that the best career advice in the end is to kind of try to design a career that can move with you and let my own skills be my anchor because as a military spouse I need to be encouraged to focus on portable things and I need to use my skills in jobs that I can where I can apply those skills remotely from almost anywhere in this world. This helps me to permanently be focused on my long-term growth.

The advice that I would give to myself and to any other young women is to be confident not underestimate my skills what I can do and I don't want to wait to start to build things and to use these skills that I have by creating projects and public and in this way I can show the people what I can do and what I can help with. Also with regards to the communities try to be a voice in your community speak come up in meetings have diverse perspectives because it's not wrong to have a different opinion.

The challenge is to be able to transform that huge amount of data into clear and reliable insights. This is very hard to obtain a trustworthy insight from that amount of data given the fact that the data quality the heels are uneven across all the businesses and organizations. An opportunity is to be able to make a sort of bridge between all this technical work and the storytelling which about the practical side. If you can make a good bridge between the technical work and the practical storytelling you are able to get a meaningful message from those numbers and explain them in a language that the leaders and people can understand.

With regards to my work I think it's important to be honest integrity I think is very important and in this analytics work integrity I think that in this field it's really important to be honest about what the data can and cannot say. You need to design and create and present models that are in line with the real life of the people come up with meaningful decisions not just numbers because behind the numbers some messages. In my personal life I think that of course as a military spouse it's about serving and resilience I need to be resilient because when we move I need to help my family adapt with two kids it's not easy.
