Lessons learned from a freelance career

For most of my career, I have loathed the 9-5.

Not because of bad workplaces or unfulfilling roles – it’s just a symptom of how my brain works. I am happiest and most productive when jumping from task to task in short bursts. No job I’ve had, whether an entry-level communications position or the executive director role I most recently held, has given me the freedom to work like that.
