How do you balance your rising career with your personal life? Continuously reevaluating priorities. What once seemed like a dire rush to make sure I reached certain achievements within a given time-frame to somehow cement that my perceived accomplishments had value, has settled into a steady state of heightened awareness of progress and intentionality – regardless of a self-imposed deadline. I’ve prioritized health and wellness over incessant drive, curiosity and learning over unfocused productivity and reinstating the ‘life beyond the office’ that has ultimately reinvigorated my creativity.

Who are the key people in your life that have contributed to your success? I’ve been blessed with a family that celebrates and supports my growth unconditionally. My siblings are my biggest motivators and the driving force behind why I try to lead by example in all I do. My parents taught me to value education from an early age, encouraging me to achieve many opportunities they didn’t have access to. They propel me to push my limits for growth even when my confidence falters and are my inspiration for resilience.
