eWomenNetwork 2017 Managing Director of the Year with the Colorado Springs chapter, Julie Davis, shares how teaching high school English in Yuma, Arizona, and being a nationally ranked ski racer taught her about running a business and maximizing productivity. 

Here's a excerpt from the interview:

Julie Davis: "I grew up in a very affluent ski town in Colorado and went to a very affluent college. I had never really experienced a poor place, and to move down to Yuma where we’re 22 miles from Mexico, we were 5 miles from the border of California, and be thrown into a school where the books were probably close to 20 years old. There were no teacher editions. Where you write your name in the textbook, it was like those lines, plus the end of the page, plus flip the page and then they were all down the back of the page. So, I got to work. I mean what do you do?
