"my friends and I had like a e-commerce business, um, that we were sort of testing and found some success with."

"I run four different teams: a supply team, a staffing team, a payments team, and a compliance team."

"understanding their ideas, synthesizing those ideas and turning them into projects and initiatives and continuous improvement"

"soft skills being communication is key. Making sure you can get buy-in from other people."

"The best part of my role is being able to constantly solve problems and constantly push the company forward."

"Managing, and always coming up with new ways to grow the business is definitely super challenging."

"tech is forced to always push the envelope, um, with innovation"

"You just need to be like a good communicator, a good problem solver."

"the biggest by far thing, not even in this industry, in any industry, is leveraging your network."

"really what I would look out for is an opportunity where either A, it's at a really good company where you'll meet a lot of people that you can learn from. Or B, the role is sort of multifaceted."

"Leveraging your network is what I wish I knew and what I was doing from the start."

"I tried to find any opportunity to be in a meeting with them so I could learn from them, to learn from what they do well, I can learn from what they don't do well too"

"I was able to get thrown into sort of the fire, um, uh, the career fire right away, right after college."
