Nicole Emerick was a young professional in Chicago with a promising career in commercial banking. But, like many post-college Millennials, she wondered: Is this really it?
She attempted to seek out answers and as a result, Ms. Career Girl, a blog for ambitious young professional women, was born. As the blog grew, Nicole developed a passion for social media. She pursued continuing education, networked like crazy, tested her what she learned on Ms. Career Girl and started speaking and teaching digital marketing whenever possible.
