Partnerships. Where would we be without them? Whether it’s rowing together, traveling in tandem or enjoying a cocktail it’s always nice to have a partner in crime. Sure, it’s great to be able to come up with an idea by oneself and self promote its brilliance but […]
I am used to being the only girl around. I worked for ten years at a non-profit that was about 90% men. At my first real job a few decades ago, all my “real” friends were men. When I went to graduate school and my whole cohort […]
