I want to listen to my Apple Music on my iPhone. I also want to listen to it on my iPad. I want to play it on my Apple TV; I want to be connected everywhere I go. It fits into the puzzle of everything that is Apple, and, therefore, it should not be seen as some sort of separate entity that is trying to find its way.

I believe in manifesting the words that are coming out of my mouth. I'm very careful with what I say because the intention is then out in the universe.

I'm such a brand nerd.

I think it's interesting how you can associate a creative brand with a human being and use some of the good qualities of the human being and make it like a really tangible product that a lot of people can love.

I want to hear LeBron James's Uber stories.

I'm a woman. I'm black. I am passionate. I am transparent.

It's our job as marketers and brand professionals to nurture the brand and calm it down when it's angry and to encourage when it's trying to grow.

I've broken through many walls and glass ceilings.

Obviously, as a marketer, I love to work with brands that aren't static, that have life and personality.

Apple Music is a living, breathing brand.

Apple is a unique company in that the art and the science sit together very nicely. There's an appreciation for both sides of the brain.

I don't fear challenge.

I think women have a unique talent for being able to see the forest and the trees at the same time.

I've never made a move that I didn't feel was right in my gut.

Working at Uber, I see opportunity and potential.

Pop culture and entertainment can be dismissed as surface, but it's not. It's the language we all speak, and it's the connection point between people all over the world.

Passion should meet your professional life, and I'm a living, breathing testament to that.

Bring your whole self to work because, that way, you can bring full ideas and the wholeness of your unique abilities.

I want things to be great for people of color and for women.

At school, I could talk about what other kids were talking about. Maybe I wouldn't seem so strange if I connected with them on the level they were used to.

Marketers sometimes get caught in this lie that you must talk to people only in the voice that they recognize.

I want to be something that is worthy to be bragged about.

I can't be in an environment that is not conducive to me as a black woman.

It's important to be an ally. You don't have to be a black woman to think we should have more black women in tech.

I don't have to be an engineer to understand we need female engineers.

My job is about emotion. My job is about feeling. This might be controversial to say, but I feel like sometimes data gets in the way of that.

Even though society has come a long way in correcting the inequalities between men and women in the workplace, it still has to be said that women are oftentimes subconsciously playing to the gender roles which we are taught from birth.

I want white men to look around in their office and say, 'Oh, look, there's a lot of white men here. Let's change this.'

The number of African Americans in Silicon Valley is dismal. It's not up to one company - it's up to the entire industry to make sure that we are moving the conversation forward. Sometimes those walls of competition need to come down so we can move the entire industry forward.

I love Apple Music. I helped build Apple Music. It will always be a very, very big part of my life and part of the journey.

We all know this: Music is such a fundamental part of life.

Being a black woman in America and the world and in corporate situations is something to be celebrated.

I think diversity and having women and people of color in key positions is really important.

I really did enjoy my time at Apple - it's a great company, and I really loved building Apple Music.

I feel really proud of the work I did at Apple Music, and I don't take anything away from it that's negative at all.

For me, pop culture is very fluid: it's music, it's movies, it's books, it's art, it's tech, it's so many things - and as marketing and brand advocates, we should be able to to take products and services and match them to what's happening in pop culture.

You can't control everything.

At 13, I learned what it meant to walk into a room and not care what everybody thinks of you.

Don't let the myths make you believe that women don't support other women.

Music inspires some feeling in you. That's the same way I think about Uber.

You gotta go with your gut. It will never steer you wrong.

I always do what I'm most interested in first.

I don't expect anyone who doesn't look like me to fix my problems.

We should all be allies to ideas or people or initiatives that we don't necessarily have a real knowledge in.

We need better corporate environments. We need better workplaces everywhere.

I don't see a utopia anywhere for me.

I firmly believe brand stories are complex and multilayer.

Because my husband, Peter, died young, I've already faced the scariest thing in my life. Now I live out the dreams for both of us.

I've always been a black woman in corporate America. I've faced my share of issues.

I've never run from a job; I've always run to another one.
