01What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
Don't let any ideas, anyone else's ideas be set on your mind, or be stopped on your mind. Like, your path and your journey is unique. And it's not gridded. You have the power to guide it. And to be the architect of your destiny... Everyone builds their own opportunities. I think persistence, hard work. Great values, you know? Positivity and great attitude, that's what builds your career for success.
