She came up through the copy side of that equation in the healthcare space thanks to a childhood expectation to become a doctor. But she followed the calling to Own It 11 years ago, and has built an outstanding agency. \nLike many women agency owners, Elena’s experience with motherhood influenced her decision to plant her own flag rather than work for someone else. \nAnother thing I love about Elena is that she spends a lot of time exposing the advertising business to schools and students to ensure the industry reaches young people, particularly in underserved populations. \nSo inspiring and such a delight to talk to. \nThanks for listening to this episode of OWN IT. You can find links to Elena's LinkedIn profile and Copy & Art’s website in our show notes at untilyouownit.com.\nIf you’re enjoying Own It, please find it on your favorite podcast app and drop us a rating and review.
