What do you attribute your success to?
I attribute my success to having a strong work ethic and taking ownership and responsibility for everything I'm in charge of. If my name is attached to something, I want it to be well done - I don't want to do anything that I would be embarrassed of or just halfway do it. I've always wanted to make a large impact, and I know that I have to put the paper to the pencil and grind and hustle and do what I need to do to make sure that everything I do is excellent. I have very high expectations for myself, and I try to have those around me with the same high expectations and positivity. Everyone has their bad day, but I do try to be more Pollyanna-ish or Susie Sunshine. Even when I see teachers at school not feeling their best, I take action - that's why I created the teacher health committee and push around a snack cart on Mondays. When I see that everyone is getting beat down in the trenches, I think about how we can make our culture better. I just positively drive into other people's lanes - if I see holes or issues and they want my help, I'm already fixing it. I just need them to tell me yes, please help me.

What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
