Advice to Students:

Ironically, the best career advice I have is—never stop being a student. Even when you’re eager to prove yourself at work, the real skill is learning from everyone and everything around you. Say yes to opportunities that weren’t in your plan—sometimes the detours end up mattering most. Network even when you don’t feel like it, but reframe it: you’re learning from people, not just “networking.”
