From Second Assistant to VP in 4 Years — While Paying Off $100K in Loans
After Sallie Mae refused to fund her final year of college, Candace moved to New York with $100,000 in student debt and started nannying.

Along the way, the firm sent her to Costa Rica for 8 weeks to learn Spanish — because she asked them to — and she traveled the world on their dime, including ending up with Snoop Dogg in Croatia.
