Being Professional:
How did you get started in your career/area of expertise?
I think I’ve always known I had it in me to run my own business. It wasn’t until my colleagues started asking for my presence at the table did I really take myself seriously. After I realized that I was a valuable member to any organization, I decided to market myself to other companies.
What are some of your biggest professional victories?
The fact that my business, focusing on the oil and gas industry, has thrived in a downturn for the last four years.
What are some of the best lessons you’ve learned in your professional life?
My gut instinct is ALWAYS the right one, even if it seems like I react too quickly.
What does being a creative partner mean to you?
I’m able to share my ideas without judgment – good ideas or bad. Oftentimes, the bad ideas turn out to be pretty great when you work through them and collaborate with other creative individuals.
