" Access to mentorship, guidance, and representation is critical for any woman aspiring to break into a highly competitive field. I look forward to a future where women can reshape these traditionally male-dominated spaces for future generations, and I believe the work done in the Millennium Fellowship Program will bring us closer to achieving that goal. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Connecting Careers with WBA
As a part of the Texas Women in Business Association (WBA), I aim to empower students at UT to pursue challenging careers by helping them develop crucial professional skills and providing access to role models they can learn from. I plan to achieve this by hosting career development workshops, expanding WBA’s alumni database, and strengthening WBA's mentorship program so that students can connect with experienced upperclassmen and professionals. By increasing access to mentorship and amplifying the visibility of women in business, I hope to create a supportive community where members feel confident exploring a wide range of career paths and breaking through traditionally gate kept professions.
