Her Interview
Ten minutes with Ruth
01What do you attribute your success to?
I attribute my success to hard work, perseverance, and the support of the people who have been important in my life, particularly my late husband, my mentor, and my children. I have never been afraid to put in the time required to accomplish something, whether that meant late nights, weekends, or very long hours.
I also attribute my success to believing in myself and refusing to be intimidated by challenges. There have been many moments when I have thought, "I can't possibly do this," but I have learned to challenge that thinking and remind myself that I can. Developing that confidence and continuing to push forward has been an important part of my professional growth.
02What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?
The best career advice I have received came from my mentor, who has been an important part of my professional life since 2015. Her advice has always been simple but powerful: believe in yourself and do not doubt yourself.
There have been times when I have doubted my own abilities, and she has encouraged me to get back up, recognize what I am capable of, and keep moving forward. Her consistent reminder that "you can do this" has helped me develop greater confidence in myself and my abilities.
03What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
Do not be afraid of the unknown. Take opportunities when they come your way and commit yourself to learning what you do not yet know. You do not have to have every answer before you begin.
Do the research, put in the work, ask questions, and find the answers. Not knowing something is okay; what matters is being willing to learn and figure it out. For many years, fear of the unknown held me back, but eventually I learned to push through that fear and move forward. I encourage the next generation of women to do the same.
