“A smile and good energy. They will take you farther than any material possession.”

“You kind of get the same adjectives coming back over again and over again describing millennials. I think the national rhetoric around this generation is unfairly negative.”

“You need to be really great at your job. You need a strong network of peers, and you need a strong network of mentors.”

“Don't let the good days get to your head, and don't let the bad days get to your heart.”

“I would encourage everyone in their first job not to ask themselves, 'Where do I want to be?' but 'What do I want to learn from this?' Use that opportunity to be a sponge.”

“Just displaying your resume online, which LinkedIn lets you do, isn't enough.”

“We cannot solve the STEM gender gap without solving it for millennials. They're our first digital natives, and they're willing to learn quickly.”

“My first college internship was at Sony Pictures Entertainment in Los Angeles. My second internship was at McKinsey & Company as a consultant - that turned into my first job after graduation.”

“You are bigger than your self-doubt. Remind yourself of that each and every day.”

“I begin to cut myself off in a digital shutdown at about 10 P.M. Phone, laptop, and iPad go down. If I'm at home, I'll leave my laptop and iPad in the living room. Those things don't go into my bedroom at all.”

“I've started to really nurture a bedtime routine, which, for me, starts with caffeine-free tea, usually rooibos or jasmine tea, something soothing, very fragrant, just a reminder to get back to your senses.”

“As a tech optimist, I believe productivity woes can be solved through cleverly imagined and implemented technology.”

“I first began to realize that it was time to leave my job when the sight of my manager's telephone number on my screen made my heart contract and burn.”

“I want every single millennial woman to feel like Levo has improved their lives.”

“The genesis of the Thinking Talent app came from wanting to create a way to scale self-discovery with a framework that we, personally, inside of the company, have used really successfully.”

“Trust me: Every entrepreneur has felt like an utter loser at some point.”

“From a professional standpoint, our transformation of the labor landscape at scale through technology with Levo is the highest and best direction of my energy.”

“Be the best you can be, but acknowledge that you will make mistakes, and then know which errors to let go of. There will be typos in e-mails, meetings you are late for, daily to-do lists that don't get completed. Cut yourself some slack and, more important, reward yourself along the way.”

“The way in which you accomplish your goals and help your customers needs to be very flexible depending upon how those customers are reacting in real time.”

“We work more than we do anything else in our lives, but the average person only interacts with four to five colleagues. Outside of that, they don't build that many relationships.”
