Always choose high quality and focus on revenue generation. 3. Your relevant years will shrink fast, and the window of opportunity will disappear in no time. The best moment for everything is now. Start applying these 3 rules, and you will be unstoppable.

Partnership is the foundation to success

I had a great time facilitating a workshop entitled, "Practical Metacognitive Strategies for the College Classroom" at the 2024 Teaching, Learning, & Technology Conference (TLTCon 24). Many thanks to attendees for the great thoughts you shared throughout the session! 😊 #TLTCon24 #Metacognition #HigherEd #FacDev #EdDev

It’s a wrap for my second year as a Blue Team Captain at BSidesLV's Pros Versus Joes! Leading the team "There's No Way It's DNS" (spoiler alert: it’s always DNS) was an absolute honour. The diversity and dedication of this team never ceased to amaze me. We had a team made up of individuals from all walks of life—players fresh out of high school, seasoned system administrators, innovative solutions architects, and even a medical doctor. We spanned a wide range of ages, from 18 to folks in their 40s, maybe even 50s (I didn't ask). This is what makes Pros Versus Joes so special: it’s a melting pot of skills, experiences, and perspectives, all coming together with a shared passion for cybersecurity. Throughout the competition, my team faced off against a relentless Red Team, and the way they collaborated, adapted, and fought back was truly inspiring. It’s not just about defending systems; it’s about learning from each other, growing as a team, and pushing the boundaries of what we thought was possible. This event is a reminder that cybersecurity isn’t just for a specific type of person—it’s for everyone. Whether you're just starting out or you’ve been in the game for years, there’s a place for you in this community. I’m proud of what we achieved together, and I’m already looking forward to next year’s challenge! #pvj #prosvjoes #bsideslv #hacking #blueteam #cybersecurity #ctf #wargame

We're sold out... AGAIN! and taking pre-orders... AGAIN! Selling out of product can be such a polarizing feeling: 🍸 On one hand, I feel a sense of pride! What we're doing is working & people want to try our product! We did that, Kylie Vonnahme 👏 🍸 On the other hand, I feel frantic. We need more stock! Let's put pressure on our manufacturing and co-packing partners for quicker turn around! We need to change our marketing messaging! *making a mental note to get better at projections* The list goes on. BUT... seeing those pre-orders rolling in DEFINITELY makes it better!! GO PRE-ORDER NOW @ un-supplements.com 🥂

Opportunity. Today is the last day to apply for the next cohort! In the words of my great grandmother Josephine Little Hurst, “don’t tarry too long in doubt, you got to move”. There are many meaningful things I learned as a member of #cohortVI with BLCK VC institute. One that replays in my head consistently is that ‘if I have the fundamentals in place I can make my vision a reality.’ #BVI gives you the fundamentals of #venturecapital and a network of brilliant professionals to help you execute.

I’m happy to be rejoining the TSCPA. I’ve been incredibly focused on information systems, cybersecurity, process analysis, data analytics, and AI, but I will always be grateful for my ability to convey these important topics in the language of business. Having a CPA makes communicating with management a breeze. I love reframing these topics as value drivers rather than cost centers. #tscpa #cpa #ciso #vciso

Networking as a student is so out of my comfort zone. Going and striking a conversation with random people in various industries is something I find both difficult and enjoyable at the same time. One thing which these events really help in is to build the skill of active listening. When I first started attending networking events, I felt overwhelmed by the prospect of approaching professionals and engaging in meaningful conversations. The fear of saying the wrong thing or not being able to keep up with the discussion often held me back. However, as I attended more events and forced myself out of my comfort zone, I began to realize the value of active listening. Active listening isn't just about hearing what someone says; it's about fully understanding their perspective, thoughts, and emotions. In a networking setting, it's crucial for building rapport, establishing connections, and learning from others' experiences. I'm excited to continue honing my active listening skills and building meaningful connections in the vibrant community of professionals on LinkedIn and beyond! Let's connect and learn from each other! Young Engineers Australia SA 🌟 #Networking #ActiveListening #ProfessionalGrowth #StudentLife #BuildingConnections 🤝📚
