        Terry co-led one of the Google Alumni Women layoff cohorts for women like me who were affected by the 2022 layoffs. She provided valuable job search advice. Given her energy, expertise and EQ, it was a no-brainer for me to take her up on a 1-1 offer. Terry played a part in my success landing a role as the Chief of Staff in a clean tech startup.
