Proudest Moment: One of my proudest moments was driving Unilever to scale my initiative to hire women into frontline sales roles at a national level—a significant achievement in a traditionally underrepresented field. It was an uphill battle with several layers of operational buy-in required, but I and my team managed to overcome them, resulting in the hiring of over 2,000 women across the country in frontline sales roles. 

Motto for Life: Do what you love, and you'll love what you do!

Fun Fact / Favorite Hobby: I love baking bread! It started as a pandemic hobby, and evolved into a small business I ran out of my own kitchen! I don't bake commercially since coming to business school anymore, but I do enjoy sharing my baked creations with my friends!
