watering the roots that got me to where I am today.
Community involvement
I am an advocate for DE&I and mentorship within my community. I am filled with gratitude and joy when I have the opportunity to pass on what I know to others or help organizations that align with my values. I serve on boards and committees for organizations within the financial industry or for companies making an impact.
