Vice President & Treasurer, The New York Times Company, mom of Bailey, 7, And Ava, 5

“My mid-thirties were full of epiphanies. I was having a hard time juggling everything, thinking there was something that everyone else had—some secret superpower—that I was missing. Then I realized: There’s no magic. Life’s full of imbalances and you just do your best. But I get a lot of joy from spending time with my family, talking and laughing. I lived in the Caribbean as a child, and the house was always full of laughter. I’m also inspired by my grandmother: She emigrated from St. Vincent to Trinidad as a young woman, had five kids and worked as a caterer. When I’m having a difficult day, I think of her strength.”
