Things that deeply motivate me…

Creating a safe little nest 🐣

As an introvert, I connect with people in deep, intimate ways. I love being a safe space for people, including family, friends, colleagues, and others. By doing this, I help people find meaning in their work. In turn, we all work more effectively, advancing our organizational mission together. This is extremely rewarding!

Ask me for advice

I love connecting with colleagues, especially when I can offer guidance and a pep talk to help them find solutions. By showing up with authenticity, I'm able to lead, model, and serve as a thought partner.
