What is your advice for women starting
their careers? Establish a broad network
of support for yourself. This network should
include women and men, people at work
or school, in your family or circle of friends.
Your support system will pull you through the
tough times and be there to celebrate when
you win.
What is the main thing you attribute your
success to? Perseverance and passion for
learning. I have been persistent in following
my passion and dreams, even in the face of
adversity. I have learned to take risks and
to be flexible along the way to overcome
challenges.
What is the best way to find work/life
balance? Be yourself, and stay true to your
values and priorities.
