Her Interview
Ten minutes with Erika
01What do you attribute your success to?
I think something that I've really enjoyed throughout my career is having professional mentors. From one of my previous companies, I have two mentors that I still stay in touch with.
02What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
Keep learning, and never feel like you know everything. Continue to learn from the people around you, from people in your organization, but also, you know, have mentors. Create good relationships, be someone who's easy to work with. Be data-driven.
