"I saw what I wanted and then I just went and kind of curated my own low learning program."

"my team manages all of the work that we do around storytelling, our culture at the company, so that when candidates are exploring what company do they wanna work for, which one's gonna be the right fit, they know what it would be like to work here."

"A big piece of what I do now is coaching my team members. We're always working and collaborating and creating something new together."

"having this like love for people's stories is a big piece. So like storytelling and just being genuinely interested in people and their stories"

"I also love just being able to help change behavior for the positive."

"The whole stakeholder relationship piece...getting input and getting alignment and being able to have this collaborative nature is totally we want because it creates a better product."

"It's just innovation all day long. Always looking at how we can be doing things better."

"being really in tune with data so that you can make those pivots quickly based on like data-driven decisions."

"It isn't just about the work that you're doing, it is also about how you're doing the work, and it is about who you're doing the work with."

"some really good pathways are like a social media specialist, a marketing coordinator, ... a recruiting coordinator ... and then events specialists"

"Sometimes you just have to connect the dots for people so they can see, um, how it all supports and builds up to together."

"Try to get internships where you're actually given real work that you can go practice and start working on, and where hopefully you have good coaches and mentors to help you grow."

"I needed to first check with myself, like, where do I, where do I sit with this? And it was like the clear answer of I am just as capable."

"I was sitting alongside peers who were super smart, who would push me. We were, you know, ... learning and growing together."
