What do you attribute your success to?
I credit my success to my ability to overcome extreme adversity, my resilience, and self-confidence. I'm simultaneously driven by my strong dedication to my professional development and my passion to provide resourceful information to my communities. I have always admired my late mom’s remarkable work ethic and grit growing up, which continues to inspire me in both my personal and professional life.
What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?
No one cares about your career more than you do. So seek the opportunities; don't expect them to fall on your lap.
What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
No matter what, always believe in your skills and your ability to learn. In turn, that belief will result in your confidence in acquiring desirable skill sets, and that will translate into you being unstoppable. No matter what anyone says and as long as you keep pushing through (and with a viable action plan), you'll reach your goals, and others will follow suit. In short, be your #1 supporter.
What values are most important to you in your work and personal life?
I place great importance on pursuing opportunities that align with my personal and professional values & passions, while continuously upholding kindness and empathy with everyone I meet. I also value self-care and giving myself grace, because if I'm not taking care of myself, I can't be fully present when I'm assisting others. It's also important to me that I work towards staying present and tackling each task one at a time, so that I can achieve my goals effectively and efficiently.
