Her Interview
Ten minutes with LaTrista
01What do you attribute your success to?
My faith in God and myself. I had to learn to trust his voice and my fight. I am a reflection of the hard working women in my family so I give them credit for teaching me to be a "go getter".
02What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?
Never let someone tell you what you can and can't be. The idea is insane until it's a thing. Focus on what you want and go get it. Break the barriers (physically and mentally). What I like to so " Embrace your Slayage and rip Life’s Runway."
03What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
Prepare for the licensing exam early. Develop the ability to apply concept in test world.
