What is your favorite piece of career advice? My favorite piece of advice is to connect with people on the basis of offering a hand, and what can you do for them instead of always asking for things. Give first and do not expect anything back. Another piece of advice I have for students is to be uncomfortable—that’s what gets you places. It’s something I am still learning to do myself.
