Abstract	In this paper, the author describes, from a personal standpoint, the highlights of her most relevant studies on the topic of reform and resistance in mathematics education. Having moved from being a working-class kid to a tenured professor, the author hopes that by sharing her observations and advice, others on a similar path might have a smoother transition. The paper concludes with the author's "top ten" pieces of advice for new scholars in mathematics education: (1) Follow your heart; (2) Follow your personality; (3) Recognize your advantages and disadvantages; (4) Say "no" often; (5) Collaborate with those who complement your disadvantages; (6) Be bold--ask advice of senior scholars; (7) Review (conference proposals, articles, grant proposals, etc.); (8) Appreciate the field of mathematics education; (9) Think about the job you want--there are many jobs in mathematics education; and (10) Enjoy yourself.
