"I dabbled in a few different directions. I was exploring, trying to find my footing. So I had three jobs."

"It's a never-ending process; there's no real finish line."

"There's way more time that goes into preparing for those conversations, following up on those conversations than the actual, when you're on stage, so to speak."

"But really in my role, it's all about communication. Communication skills, start hundred percent listening. As I say, you got two ears, one mouth."

"It is not an assemble. It's really dynamic."

"The challenge is how are you 10% different than your competitors?"

"I live and breathe that every day...So to see all that goes into making that happen, it's just pretty cool."

"You have to be persistent. Um, and creative, sometimes patient, um, you take nos, but you keep going."

"There's plenty of space in this work for both personality styles...the introverts also, longer term, tend to catch up."

"if you're the client facing person, then obviously communication skills are gonna be super duper important."

"When you have the choice, rank the best manager, the best boss, the best team to be a part of above the job description."

"All the extracurricular stuff is key too. But you've gotta rank order things sometimes."

"what often happens is a lack of detail conveys a lack of respect, which is probably not what you're trying to do."
