Episode Quotes

A lifelong passion for politics: “One of the things I’ve always loved growing up was elections… I love understanding why people think in a certain way and what are the messages that persuade them to vote in a particular way.”


Looking forward to the spring semester: “[The Leadership Communications course] is all about storytelling, presence, leadership, and I think communication is so critical to any successful leader. I’m really excited about that and also how to be vulnerable in an authentic way.


Joining the EWMBAA as the EVP, Marketing: “What I wanted to do was to use my skills to help in the need [following Covid-19]... I have good skills around how you put information together, how you present in a clear and compelling way, how you engage people in novel formats. That’s why I really want to step up and be counted.”
