Her Interview
Ten minutes with Marta
01What do you attribute your success to?
I think I'm a good speaker. I speak with everybody, and I speak a lot, and I also listen carefully to what they say, and I honestly truly care. I really care to help people. And sometimes it pays me off where people that I help them without expecting anything every time they come back to me and say hey we need help with some other investments that we have somewhere else can you help us. So I think that's kind of like what attribute my success that I really care and I show them and I prove it to them and that's what clients like.
02What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?
Believe in yourself. Never compare yourself to somebody else especially for us people that are not born in America we do come here to the jobs with some sort of like an accent and sometimes you feel you might be less than others. And that's not the case. You have to embrace who you are where you're coming from regardless if you do have that accent or not because that makes you unique.
03What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
Trust the process. It takes a minute to get used to you know learn all the policies and procedures and also to be patient because you know you're treating with people and sometimes you need to break that trust barrier in order for you to earn that trust. And that can take months years but then at some point they will open to you. So you have to be very patient.
04What values are most important to you in your work and personal life?
I think loyalty being empathy so you know being able to understand what the other people might be going through and be kind regardless and do not judge somebody by their book or by the cover.
