• My advice to someone getting started in their career, or looking for a career, is don't let others pigeonhole you into a specific role. Instead, think deeply about who you are, what you love doing, and where you would contribute the most value. It shouldn't be a one time decision that you lock in for the rest of your life, it's something you have to revisit and realign periodically as you acquire new information and experiences. Also, understand what aspects of your career and family really matter and focus on that. Otherwise, you can't advance or balance them.

    "Do not seek to follow in the footsteps of the wise. Instead, seek what they sought." - Matsuo Basho
