I definitely think 2020’s reputation precedes it at this point in the year. If bad things are supposed to come in threes, someone must explain to me how we’ve accumulated 798 of them since just mid-March. And yet, somehow we’ve miraculously made it what, in my humble opinion, is the best part of the year…the…

My First Vlog!
Check it out! Went for something new and decided to create a video entry this time from my new Austin apartment. Enjoy! My First Vlog!
Work It! Job Hunting: The Musical
Over the last couple of months, I’ve obviously been scanning job postings. I look at postings for all sorts of opportunities – both to see what I might want to do and to see what I might need to learn if I want to pursue various jobs. I find that LinkedIn makes this super easy,…
Introducing…Work It! The Career Chronicles
I know I’ve been sort of MIA lately. To be honest, I’ve been all over the map (literally and figuratively). Since I’ve been back in Houston, I’ve started the introspective process of what to do next career-wise. And let me tell you, reflecting on what the next chapter of your professional life should hold is…

It’s not you, NYC — It’s me
I think I've made it pretty clear that NYC is my spirit animal, if my spirit animal could be a city. So everyone, including myself, was sort of surprised when I said I was going to move back to Houston after just a year in the big apple. Why leave a place I love so…
Apply Within
I heard a staggering statistic recently. Men will apply for a job if they meet 60% of the qualifications, while women will apply only if they meet 100% of them. What the what? As a woman working in the woman-dominated industry of public relations, my mind was blown. I’ve had the privilege of working with…
Oh what a (Tony) night!
The 2019 Tony Awards are in the books, and I could not be more grateful to have been at the tippy-top of Radio City Music Hall to watch the entire event go down. It was everything I could’ve imagined, and so much more. And while my recap can’t dare do the evening justice, I’ll try…
Dreams Don’t have Deadlines
Earlier this month, I went to an extra-special Quilt event…a Q&A between Quilt co-founder Ashley Sumner and Aliza Licht (find out all about Aliza here). The mastermind behind the DKNY PR Girl Twitter handle and a powerhouse in the fashion industry, Aliza welcomed a small group into her world for the evening. She was so gracious…
She Works Hard for the Money
We’ve all worked with people who are so busy all the time. So busy. All. The. Time. You know the ones, they brag about consistently working 10+ hour days like it’s a badge of honor. They don’t have time to go to the bathroom or stop to eat lunch during the work day. Here’s the…
Oh no, she donut
One of my last mornings at my previous job here in NYC, I was confronted with a strange situation, the likes of which I hadn’t witnessed first-hand since probably elementary school. One of the team members brought donuts for the team as a celebratory gesture – it was one of the last works days before…
