Quotes
- “Sometimes, all it takes is one person to believe in you”
- “Having the confidence to revisit what I’d written and spend time in the moment helped me to tell a better story. Sometimes it’s the smallest details that bring a character to life”
- “I can honestly say that rejections have made me a better writer. I tried to take on board any feedback I was lucky enough to receive, was spurred on to find out as much as I could about the industry, and I learned to bounce back when disappointments arose. Because of these experiences, I fully appreciate how far I have come, and I think this will help me to face the inevitable ups and downs that come with being an author”
- “My father was interested in technology and impressed upon me how important it was to business”
- “HBS was more important preparation for the role that I’m in now than I possibly could have appreciated at the time”
- “I got the stock-picking bug,she says. I enjoyed the intellectual challenge, and I liked interacting with the fund managers”
