In addition to one-on-one career coaching, her blog, \"Ms. Career Savage,\" dishes career advice for today's work landscape and is most known for speaking the truth everyone is only thinking.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGrowing up in a predominantly Caucasian community, Kyyah often felt marginalized. She was placed in a resource specialist program in the third grade and was told she had a learning disability that prevented her from being able to read and write at the level of her peers. For years she struggled. Teachers would attempt to hold her back but her mother advocated for her every step of the way. As she made her way through school, she received the smallest amount of support when applying to college. Her high school guidance counselor advised her to attend community college because they felt she wouldn't be accepted into a four-year university.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eContrary to that counselor's opinion, Kyyah received her BS in pre-medical biology in 2016 and her Masters in Public Health with a concentration in urban healthcare disparities in 2019. Kyyah went on to work for companies like Yale New Haven Health, Pfizer, Amgen, Bachem, Genentech, and Bristol Meyer Squibb while securing a six-figure salary before the age of 25. Kyyah now works as a remote pharmaceutical consultant facilitating clinical research and development with the FDA to get client medicines approved in the cell therapy, hematology, and oncology space. She has also written public health programs addressing ways to decrease the prevalence of poor cardiovascular health among the African American population and is the published co-author for a scientific journal, \u003ci\u003eChronic Respiratory Disease and Health-Related Quality of Life of African American Older Adults in an Economically Disadvantaged Area of Los Angeles\u003c\/i\u003e (Bazargan et al. 2019).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eKyyah is a black, ambitious young woman in the science, technology, education and mathematics space, who also happened to be diagnosed with a learning disability at a young age. Despite all of these societal labels, she overcame by way of her Career Savage practices. In a world that continues to label people leaving them mentally pigeon-holed, Kyyah desires to be the light at the end of many student's tunnels. Especially to those who have ever felt marginalized.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mango","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":39827872284787,"sku":"9781642507560","price":16.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_4f8632d9-267b-490a-b470-f74d6d31117d.jpg?v=1644579121","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/the-prepared-graduate-find-your-dream-job-live-the-life-you-want-and-step-into-your-purpose-9781642507560","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
