YOU WANNA DO WHAT?!: Personal Brand, Public Speaking, Thought Leadership for Career Professionals and Founders

Why fit in when you were born to stand out? Times have changed. With over 7 billion people in the world, a changing business landscape, and the competitive job market, fitting in is failing out.

Named “Broadcast Journalism’s New Gladiator” by Elle Magazine, “Ms. Millennial” by The Washington Post, and a “Content Queen” by Marie Claire, Alicia has quickly become a force in American media. She was recently named a weekend anchor at MSNBC. Alicia is also the co-producer and host of Latina to Latina, a weekly interview podcast.
