Go with the Growth with Makenzie | Ep 140 - a podcast by Strengths not Strikes / Westwood One Podcast Network

This episode is super special because I get to introduce you all to my sister, my soror, and my dear friend, Makenzie. An International Program Manager at Microsoft, Makenzie is a North Carolina A&T double alum with a B.S. in Biological Engineering, and an M.S. in Technology Management with an emphasis in Operations and Manufacturing Systems. We dig deep into Makenzie’s decision to pursue her Masters at an HBCU versus a PWI, how she balances work, home life, and keeping her passport stamped, and how one compliment landed her the job at Microsoft. Crazy, right?

Makenzie’s story is all about the importance of exploring your options and “knowing what works best for you and cultivating that environment.” *three snaps*

Instead of our normal Lessons from the Trap, Makenzie gives us a break from the Trap with R&B vibes from Des’ree’s “You Gotta Be.” (Listen to the episode to find out how this music brings her balance!)

For some good laughs, follow her @kayzeejean on IG and @kayzeemoss on Twitter!
