Risotto, adaptability and setting expectations with Megha Lad

Students and young professionals are facing barriers, uncertainty, biases, changing priorities and now a pandemic as they navigate the school to work transition. Their collective stories have inspired me and now I want to share these stories with you.

Now, let's meet Megha! Megha Lad is attending the University of Toronto studying for her Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration and Management, Strategy and in her final semester.

Megha is an ambitious and confident young business woman who is eager to disrupt the corporate world we know today. After spending years learning business by the book, she quickly recognized how the real world is something different on its own. With a new found passion for the tech world, Megha is currently the Head of Strategic Partnerships at Torinit, a Toronto based Digital Management Consulting firm.

Megha is a creative problem solver and natural born leader. Serving as the President of the University of Toronto’s LIVE Competition in her second year of undergrad, she was able to drive impactful growth by setting corporate sponsorship records and restructuring the norm of campus recruitment.

By tapping into the Toronto corporate landscape early on, Megha was able to complete internships at RBC Technology as well as an IT consulting firm. She is also an advocate for women's education, serving as a past mentor for Technovations Girls, a global tech education nonprofit.

Not to mention a lover of all things food (@meghasmenus on instagram)! She likes to consider herself an amateur coffee connoisseur and craft cocktail fanatic on the weekends.

Most recently, I had the chance to sit down over a virtual coffee to talk Risotto, adaptability and setting expectations with Megha Lad and I am happy to share our conversation with you, Enjoy!
