Day to Day

A great starts with a coffee meeting with my team to plan what needs to be tackled that day and for the rest of the week. Then we work on solving problems for our client and show drafts to our internal leadership for feedback and to the client to discuss purpose and objectives. By the end of the day, we have a polished, thoughtful response to whatever challenge we are addressing.

Advice for Getting Started

Here's the first step for high school students

Plan your major goals at least five years ahead. The courses you take in high school and your extracurricular activities play a heavy role in your college options, and knowing what you are driving towards while in high school and college will help you stay on the right path. For example, if you want to go to certain schools you will need to get to a certain level of math in high school, and if you don't plan that now your eliminating those schools as options for yourself in the future.
