Q: If you were talking to yourself on the first day you started your career, what would be the piece of advice you would give yourself on that first day?
A: Don’t play by the rules. Carve your own path. Chase opportunities that come your way, but realize you need to create some of your own. Be a disrupter. You might rub some people the wrong way, but you will be happier in the long run.
Q: What is a quote or saying you live by, and why?
A: “Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle.” – Abraham Lincoln. I have always hustled and not wasted time in my professional and personal life. Life is too short to live any other way. I can still stop and smell the roses along the way.
Q: How do you “shine” in your career/field in a unique market like Las Vegas?
A: I have accomplished much in my 20+ tenure in Las Vegas, promoting so many wonderful businesses and non-profits to local, regional and national audiences. My proudest moments, and what I believe makes me “shine” are in identifying, recruiting and mentoring the “diamonds in the rough” who are now successful in their own right in their respective roles.
