Advice for young women: "You are entering a very exciting industry, and one that has a lot of moving parts. Consider this a journey in which you not only go deep to master a subject area, but go broad to see how all the parts go together. Continually learn the industry inside and out. The insurance industry responds to the needs of the world. Be fully aware that this industry is driven by customer needs. Understand the customer's needs, respond to the customer's needs by knowing the vehicles available to help and how to put those vehicles together."
