Karunaratne Takeaway - Emily Ambach

The advice I found most helpful from Bernadine was that creating an honest personal brand is crucial in today's professional world. We should always strive to present our "best self" and work hard to develop a positive brand that employers will see as a value to their company. With so many young people having a great education and resume, we need to find a way that will set ourselves apart through our brand. Another piece of advice she gave was to accept feedback because it's a critical part in allowing ourselves to grow. Sometimes we have to mess up to get better.
