Major: Biology
Lives in: Westfield, NJ
What work looks like: “I help shape the operating model, capabilities, culture, and ways of working that enable scientists and innovation teams to deliver breakthrough innovations within the beauty space. My work brings together strategy, processes, people, and technology so that the organization can continuously adapt, collaborate, and innovate at scale and at speed.”
What she loves about it: “I absolutely love my job. It is an honor to help shape how the beauty industry touches people’s daily lives and how they feel about themselves. I get to create the conditions where science, beauty, business, and human potential come together to produce something greater than any one person or function could create alone.”
What she gained from a liberal arts education: “A liberal arts education taught me to think beyond the boundaries of a single discipline. While biology gave me a strong scientific foundation, the liberal arts taught me to connect science with business, culture, and human behavior. I developed systems thinking, intellectual curiosity, communication, and the ability to navigate ambiguity. These skills have shaped every stage of my career, from innovation and transformation to leadership and mentorship.”
