You Know It, Now Do It!

May 25, 2011

The other day I was talking with a trainer at the gym about my health goals. After a severe car accident and some big changes in my personal life, I spent the last few years struggling with how I was going to get my fitness back on track. The worst part, however, was in the […]

Movers and Shakers

Hey all, I’m at the National Association of Women MBAs Leadership Retreat. I have the opportunity to meet some amazing women doing some pretty amazing things.

Where Does Your Money Go?

April 19, 2011

Over the last few weeks, I’ve become an economics nerd. I really have only scratched the surface, but I’m starting to learn enough to understand that our government has a very complicated conversation it needs to have with us…and not put it off until after November 2012.

April 12, 2011

I have to say it: I hate the fact that we’re already hearing about elections for 2012.

Anonymity isn’t an Invitation to be Rude

March 30, 2011

This post is available over at Forbes blogs: Social media has brought a sense of “realness” to the fakeness of online identities. People used to hide behind anonymity, and then we declared (with Mark Zuckerberg leading the way) that you couldn’t be taken seriously if you were hiding behind avatars and names like TechKitty5837. We embraced […]

Actions and Reactions

March 22, 2011

Remember being in grade school, studying math or science, and you’d hear a classmate say, “When am I ever going to use this in real life?” Little did you know the basics of equations show up everywhere. Most of the time, it’s a pretty easy concept: Y=aX+b. But then again, taking into account multiple variables […]

I have the pleasure of participating in a great virtual conference on March 1st bringing 60 women together for 60 minutes. You should take a list at the women speaking: PhDs, University Presidents, authors, and even Selena Rezvani who spoke at our university last fall. Each of us had 60 seconds to provide a message […]
