01What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
Networking is key. If getting a master's or MBA, do it in person because that's a big part of the networking. Focus on networking and go to the career center a lot. Take advantage of opportunities in education. Human connections and making relationships are where you can shine in this industry.
