First Job:
When I was a kid I had a paper- route. I learned how to deal with a wide variety of people.
Foot in the Door:
Lisa’s is another text book case on getting into television involving internships, volunteering, freelance jobs, and a willingness to take on new jobs and learn at every opportunity.
What I Like About CareersTV:
After three seasons with the show, I still get really excited by our documentary style storytelling and unique stories.
