For this young Black woman, the road to a prominent post as product manager at Comscore, started with a pivotal diversity fellowship at ABC TV during her college years.

She learned from senior executives who mentored her.

Tershone Phillips reflects on her job path from Mindshare to Nielsen to Comscore where she is managing programmatic products.

Grateful for the support along the way for efforts at all these companies, and for the corporate embrace of  the Black Lives Matter mantle , she says that businesses need to address the systemic issues around racism.

A daughter of two retired Black NYPD officers, she shares her hope for police reform.
