I had a lovely conversation with Hema. She created a safe space to ask questions and shared the experiences that shaped her path in the planning world. Her practical tips on refining the resume and cover letter were spot-on, and I left feeling informed and encouraged. Thank you, Hema, for your time and generosity in sharing your insights.
