One of the best pieces of advice I’ve ever received is that the most important job you will have, is the one you have right now. As a society we are always looking at, or for what’s next. I am personally guilty of having an exit strategy before I even get two feet in the

This might be one of my most favorite and comfortable fits ever! I wore this Jordan jumpsuit and multiprint Nike dunks to the NCAA Career in Sports Forum where I had the opportunity to be a keynote speaker. I bought my dunks from the only female owned sneaker shop in Toronto, Makeway, and when I
