I graduated from Duke's Fuqua School of Business in December, 2012, and also completed a concentration in Entrepreneurship and Innovation in May, 2013. I created LeadershipGirl as a resource for entrepreneurs to help them grow their businesses. I am the mother of four school-age children, two boys and two girls. I lead three girl scout troops- two regular troops, and another special interest troop focused on international travel. I am also my youngest son's tiger den leader, because I was apparently bored. I am passionate about helping people grow to be a better version of themselves, and that we always have room to grow and improve.

1. Secure hair in a bun in a pinch 2. Serve as a bookmark 3. Access those really small buttons on electronics 4. Emergency drum stick when you have that beat you just.can’t.get.out.of.your.head 5.

From a hiring manager’s perspective, how’d I do? 😉

Jennifer-
That’s pretty awesome, I’d say. I even see a couple I haven’t thought of before, like #2, and #5. 🙂
