Ten minutes with Aysia
01What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?
The best career advice I ever received is to go with your gut, and secondly, to always believe in yourself, and I feel like that is something I have done from the start, is just believe in myself.
02What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
The best advice that nobody ever gave me when it came to entering the workforce is, listen to the people around you that see your potential, and they're trying to drive you in the right direction. Having that strong support, especially behind the people that support you and want to see you grow is very important.
