“My goal with this blog is to provide some guidance to ambitious women about how to elevate themselves in the workplace, ultimately leading to greater representation for women in the C-Suite and on boards. Having begun my career as a night-shift nurse, I hope that the lessons I’ve learned along the way can help give other women the tools to succeed at the top of their fields.”
