The biggest message I have for young women is, Don't start cutting off branches of your career tree unnecessarily early. Sometimes women say, I know I want to have a family or play in the local symphony, and they start pulling themselves out of their career path. You don't have to take yourself out of the running before you even start.

I want women, especially young women, to create a world where your success is not based on being young.

When I see these young girls who are dreaming the dream that I'm living, it's very very exciting and it puts a big smile on my face.

My goal is to give young girls confidence in this world so they can be more like men in the decision-making process.

When you're a kid, you have these big ideas and these big dreams to make a change, or maybe you feel like you can't make a difference.

I think that as a young lady, you start off not knowing what you want to do, and then you kinda arrive at yourself by the time you're 17 or 18, hopefully. And that's what I did.

I encourage everyone to become their dream. Most young people get sidetracked and never end up doing what they really set out to do.

I want young women when they're 14 to start thinking about what they want over the course of their lives.

The best answer and the best way forward to young women out there who want to get ahead is work your tail off. Work harder than everybody. Be better than everybody else. Do better. Try harder.

Hopefully, young people will see that you can be young and make the sacrifices to follow your dreams.
