I found myself in a unique position at 27 years old to have more than 10 years of on-air work experience. I had my dream job, but couldn't let so many of my peers struggle alone.

I remembered how hard it was to pound the pavement by myself, not having family connections or any special advantage other than my persistence and perseverance...oh and my one black J.Crew suit that I saved up for and wore until the seams ripped and the sweat stains couldn't be wiped off anymore. That suit and little nuggets of advice and kindness from the businesswomen I sought out made all the difference.
