Notes

Originally a cook in the military, then migrated to information security.

Networking can be hard, but it will turn in your favor.
Lisa is an introvert, but knows how to become an extrovert when needed.

Quotes

"When you're starting out, you don't necessarily get into the area you want to be in—you got to work your way up."
“That's the biggest thing you can do. I think is networking because somebody knows somebody."
"So I got all these certifications… I read a book and pass. What is it to me personally? That didn't tell me, you know, how to do anything. They get you in the door."
"[Networking is] hard, but just do it because, in the end, it's gonna turn out in your favor."
