Her Interview
Ten minutes with Marta
01What do you attribute your success to?
I think I would attribute my success to working hard, building genuine relationships with people, and surrounding myself with like-minded partners. Good business starts with good people and the right connections.
02What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?
I would say I had an investor one time tell me, you can't do good business with bad people. You need to make sure that the people that you choose are the people that you want to be associated with.
