What does “making your move” mean to you at this stage of your career?
Understanding my value and taking risks to try new opportunities to achieve my financial goals.
Can you share a moment when you took action that moved your career forward?
After 42 years in the industry, it was not until I took my first leadership role (@ year 30) that I gained the confidence to take risks and make my move. To finally understand my value add, I find employment to meet my demands for the first time.
What helped you recognize the right time to make that move?
I did not let the fear of the unknown hold me back.
What advice would you give women in print who are considering their next move?
Don’t let fear of the unknown or what was expected keep you trapped. Keep moving til you find a good spot for that moment, and never stop looking for your next move.
What has your experience with Girls Who Print meant to you so far?
Confidence-building from knowledge, encouragement, and always support.
and growth. It’s inspiring to see women across different stages of their careers share their journeys and support one another.
