?? Last week, we had an incredible Lunch + Learn with our amazing Senior Sales and Education Executive in New York, Mimi Sanchez! She took us on a journey through her career and shared her path to Milk Makeup. Mimi highlighted the power of networking and how building meaningful connections opened doors to internships and incredible opportunities. Her proactive approach, reliability, and adaptability across various roles have been crucial to her career growth.

She shared how there were times when she realized certain paths weren't the right fit, prompting her to seek environments where she felt a genuine connection. Mimi's willingness to take risks and pursue her passions is a powerful reminder to stay curious and open-minded. Throughout her talk, Mimi addressed various aspects of personal and professional growth, including embracing failure as a stepping stone to success, maintaining work-life balance, and developing leadership skills. She encouraged our interns to remain proactive and open-minded in their career journeys, emphasizing the importance of taking risks and following one’s passion.
