This week on Good Girls Get Rich, Karen sat down with Sylvia Acevedo, author, entrepreneur, engineer and Girl Scouts of America’s CEO, and talked about Sylvia’s journey from being a girl scout to a rocket scientist. Sylvia Acevedo is an award-winning entrepreneur who has earned worldwide recognition for her work in addressing one of society’s most vexing challenges. She holds a Master’s degree in Systems Engineering from Stanford University where she was one of the first Hispanics, male or female, to have earned a graduate engineering degree. Sylvia earned her Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering from New Mexico State University. One day, upon reminiscing, she realized that the greatest inflection point in her life was the day she decided to be a girl scout.
Listen and get inspired to do what you love and create your own path. Also, don’t forget to show your support to the younger girls by finding your local girl scouts and buy delicious cookies from them.
