Transcripts
We have the pleasure of working directly with our clients to help tell their
employees' stories for prospective candidates. I think when you see yourself
reflected in storytellers you know that you will be welcome at this workplace
We've interviewed with a lot of tech companies and I'm someone who's a little
bit of a data head I like coding I like statistics and all that great stuff and
learning and hearing these stories of these women in tech roles I feel like
I've actually found role models in people that I've never met before just
by reading these transcripts of people. We bring these to life in such a way
that it really evokes a lot of emotions from people and I think that's really awesome.
I'm in charge of making sure that our clients are thrilled with the
work that we do. I'm really proud of the career that I've started to begin to build here.
When I was researching about Stories Incorporated and prepping for my
interview for this position I was learning all about who Lauryn Sargent is
she told me how she co-founded Stories Incorporated and I think that's really impressive.
It's been really great to work with a female intern, our
wonderful intern Brittany, and help to mentor her along with Lauryn and show
her that women can be at the heads of teams can be starting their own companies.
It's important for you know everyone to know that it's possible to
be a mother and an entrepreneur and engaged in both parts of your life.
To some extent it almost seems unobtainable and then you see all these women being
successful and you're like oh well that'll be me in a few years.
