Social media platform you can’t live without:
Biggest break:
“Meeting my mentor, Michelle Morin.”
Two words that best describe you:
Passionate and focused.
Work/life balance technique you recommend:
“I’m very much a Type A personality, so relaxing can actually be stressful for me. My tip for other Type A people out there would be to find what relaxes you and then make it a deliverable that you have to check off the list. You didn’t get done your to-do list if you didn’t go for that run, finally open that book, catch up on that TV show or take that catnap.”
Your advice for the next generation:
“Understand the importance of relationships. Oh, and stop taking life so seriously.”
In one sentence, define success:
“Success is knowing that others are better off, because you have lived.”
