Did your education prepare you for your career?
Somewhat. Detail oriented and organization skills mostly.
A little introspection...
To me, being successful means...
being happy!
My definition of success has changed over time.
I thought it was more about accomplishments and things earlier on than my feelings and experiences.
My greatest accomplishment to date and what I’ve learned from it
Being a happy working mom and wife with a successful career.
My biggest mistake or regret so far and what I’ve learned from it
Buying too many extravagant things or comparing against others.
An unexpected event that changed my life and how it impacted me
When my cousin in her 20s was diagnosed with cancer and died three years later. I make sure to enjoy and find the good and positivity in everything and savor what I have.
