Experience
I don’t necessarily believe that I’ve had tough decisions to make. I believe that you make a decision by using the information you have to the best of your ability, following your gut and trusting and having faith in your choice. And if your decision steers you in the wrong direction, you pivot. That’s what we do in life. We pivot.
I would like to see laws and regulations continue to be strengthened to make it hard for bad people to do bad things. As technology continues to evolve, instances of fraud and cyberattacks are only going to become more frequent and more complex, so it’s important that laws are strengthened to combat that.
I am grateful to have had so many wonderful client experiences. I like the clients who challenge us to think outside the box, which is important to me because I strive to not put my clients in boxes; I want to build a box around my client to ensure their experience is tailored specifically to their needs. That goes a long way in strengthening our relationship.
I am a huge Disney junkie! Disney can help solve a lot of life challenges. I’m a little bit of an Up fanatic.
My mom. When I was growing up, she was a single mom of two daughters; she worked hard and she worked a lot, but she was always there for us and raised us to be good people. She instilled respect in us at a young age and showed us how hard work can pay off. I am grateful for all she taught me that helped me become the person I am today.
Be open to where the road takes you! Life is about the journey. There’s so much life I got to experience because I said “yes” when I got the opportunity.
