Did your education prepare you for your career or occupation?
Yes!
Has your education or career/occupation trajectory ever changed? How?
I had no idea in high school or college, that I would be doing what I am now doing.
A little introspection...
To me, being successful means...
A productive life, with as much spare time that I can muster, to spend with my family and friends.
My definition of success has changed over time.
Realizing it is not only important to be productive, but time spent with family & friends is equally important.
My greatest accomplishment to date and what I’ve learned from it
Having my own successful business, doing what I love, and being a mom at the same time.
