Huong Bui & Angela Smith

We believe the way we work is broken. As passionate, career-driven women, we have experienced and recovered from burnout multiple times throughout our careers. At first, we blamed ourselves. We thought we needed to figure out a better way to manage our time and become more efficient both at work and at home. Then we started to talk to other women whom we admired, people who looked like they had it together from where we were sitting. It was through those conversations that we realized everyone was struggling in their own way. If all of these smart, talented women were all struggling, surely it couldn't be just us that had to change. The system that we are operating in is broken, and it needs to change.

Together, we started GigifyWork to support high-functioning, ambitious professionals find a way to pursue their ambition without losing themselves in it. We also work with organizations who want to break the mold of work and find a way of doing business that also supports the well-being of their team.
