“Be a team player regardless of what stage of your career you are in. Sometimes being a team player means doing the small tasks. It takes a team to make a company thrive; remember to do you part.”

“Lean on mentors and peers as you grow in your career. You don't have to do it alone!”

“Be prepared to stand your ground and speak truth to power. There is still a lot of stigma out there that affects peers and the work we do.”

“Find something that you're really passionate about and let that passion keep you going even when it gets hard or there are some failures. Experience comes from building as you go and trying new things. Sometimes it doesn't work out, and that's okay!”

“Find work that inspires you - there are hard days in any job, and what will motivate you to keep going, even on the difficult, chaotic, or challenging days, is a passion for the work, and belief in what you’re doing. ”

“Don't be afraid to ask others for help, and to let people know your needs. Take time for yourself when you need it.”
