Leverage your unique lived experience. Your story is your superpower. You don’t need to fit a traditional mold to thrive here. My background includes being a former athlete, running my own marketing company, and working across both creative and strategic roles. Each step shaped how I lead, communicate, and solve problems. Whatever you bring whether it’s from a different industry, a side hustle or life experience it matters. Use it. Stay curious. It's important to learn continuously and maintain a sense of wonder about the world. Some of my best experiences came because I was open to them. I’ve found the most growth when I asked questions, explored new domains and managed projects I hadn't quite fully mastered yet. Be willing to learn and lean into the unknown. Foster strong, genuine relationships with people that inspire you. Invest in the people around you. Listen well, follow through, and make room for others to shine. It makes the work meaningful and gives you a deeper feeling of belonging and purpose.
