In a way that advantages me.

So I think, like, I'm not, like, a natural, um, loud person.

I'm actually not even an extrovert.

I'm very much an introvert, and I think I've learned and I've seen, you know, as an Asian woman, that, like, sometimes you, you do get rewarded for being a little bit different.

Yes, it does make sense.

In a way that is very selfish to me in my acting career.

So in that way, I've had to kind of step outside my comfort zone and be like, "Okay, if I wanna be perceived this way, I have to be a little uncomfortable." And so then you kind of get a sense of, like, how that feels.

hi my name is drew um we here at young entertainment are all about a master class moments and learning from talent in the field such as yourselves so um my first question is for rachel what's something that you picked up from lily acting wise that you think you'll take with you into future projects and did you guys do anything like off camera to help build that friendship that we see on screen

Oh, that's a good question.

I really thought she, it was amazing how, you know, for some of these emotional scenes, everyone has their own process.

And for me, I really like to image a really positive memory that I have in my life because I think it just makes me cry.

Because I'll never have that image again in my life.

In a good way, right? I don't want to, like, re-traumatize myself.

But I felt like I don't know what Lily was doing.

And so we learned so much through our direct partnerships with utilities as well.

I love that framing.

We think of ourselves that way too, right? Utilities are in the fabric of communities across America.

And, you know, like you were very focused on unlocking these win-wins and making infrastructure work for everybody.

I want to unpack and pull on a few threads that you just created for us.

So first, I want to talk about some of your work and your forward-looking solutions that help enhance infrastructure.

I understand Microsoft has collaborated with utilities to enhance grid infrastructure through something called digital twins.

And so it's a moment for creativity and for us, I think, all to challenge ourselves on learning some new tools, getting hands-on with them, and then saying, how would I use these tools to amplify my own impact in the work that I do?
