Which of the Delta Zeta shared values resonates with you the most? Community

How did you discover your passion for what you do, and what opportunities have helped shape your career?

I’ve always loved finances. At a young age my parents were great role models and really taught us how money works and the importance of saving and living within your means. I used to be in fundraising then, during Covid, made a switch to mortgage, and I’m so happy I did. I can educate others on budgeting and making sure they feel comfortable with the mortgage loan process and purchasing a home.

Who has been an invaluable mentor for your professional career? What did you learn from them?

My parents. They were both incredibly hard working. My dad was an entrepreneur so now that I am running my own business, I think I’m able to relate to the long hours that he put in on his business.

What words of wisdom or advice do you live by?

I believe in the principle of ”rising by lifting others,” and I empower my colleagues and peers by sharing knowledge, providing guidance and support, fostering collaboration and advocating for diversity and inclusion.

What is the most impactful book you have read, or podcast you have listened to, that relates to you professionally? What made it so impactful?

“The 5AM CLUB” by Robin Sharma. It’s all about discipline, and if you are disciplined you can achieve anything.

How do you make sure you stay connected with your professional network?

I am a huge networker. I’m typically going to one to two networking events a week!

How have friendships helped you professionally? Is there a friend (or Delta Zeta sister) that has been behind you every step of the way on your career journey?

I am still really close to about 10 girls from my time in Delta Zeta. They are my biggest cheerleaders and supporters in everything I do! Their encouragement means the world!

What is your favorite thing to do outside of work?

Travel!
