Biggest obstacle overcome: It’s an obstacle I seem to truly enjoy, and that’s being first to market. Be it a product, pricing model or leadership style, I’m willing to go first. That has required a ton of learning and tenacity.
Biggest influences: My father worked hard and took pride in his career. My dear friend understands the art to the balance between working and living. My first mentor taught me “everything is easier when you realize it’s not you, it’s all of them,” and other salacious pearls of wisdom always good for a laugh and a reality check. My favourite boss taught me the value of good process and accountability. My wise colleague tells me I’m too hard on myself. And of course, my granny (you just don’t mess with granny) for her bravery, humour and grace.
