Q: What advice would you offer for women just starting out?Â
A: Find a great mentor—or two. They don’t have to be women, but they should understand your unique challenges and support your goals. Success looks different for everyone. For me, success is measured by happiness—by achieving my goals in a way that feels authentic and fulfilling. A good mentor will help you define success for yourself and stay true to your own path.Â
And don’t take yourself too seriously. Some of the most valuable lessons come from missteps. Sharing those experiences helps us grow and learn from each other.Â
A: What do you love most about doing business in this area?Â
A: Arlington is a true community. Across sectors like healthcare, real estate, retail and government, there’s a shared commitment to making Arlington even better. I see that spirit firsthand through community foundations and attending philanthropic events, where familiar faces show up time and again. I love living and working in the same community—and seeing the positive impact of our work in action all around me.Â
