Are you where you thought you would be when you were 18?
Not at all — and that’s what makes my journey so rewarding. At 18, I didn’t have a clear vision of where I wanted to go, but each step has taught me something new about myself, my strengths and what truly matters. I’ve embraced opportunities as they’ve come and built a career and life that feels authentic to me.
What challenges have you overcome to get here today?
I’ve navigated self-doubt, career pivots and the unique challenges of charting an unconventional path in my personal and professional journey. Overcoming imposter syndrome and learning to trust my instincts have been transformative, enabling me to achieve success while staying true to my values and vision.
