What is one word that describes you perfectly?
Determined

What advice would you give to the next generation of female leaders?
Take the opportunities that are presented to you even if you feel that it’s scary. Don’t be afraid to fail and learn. Most importantly, find people to collaborate with that have different strengths and weaknesses. We can always learn from a different perspective.

What makes you happy?
Crisp, clean sheets, a great meal and laughs with my family.

How do you measure success?
I feel successful when event attendees have a really good time and have no idea about all the challenges behind the scenes! That’s a Win.

What historical event inspires you the most?
I’m more of a here and now thinker. I’m inspired by acts of kindness and people who really practice what they preach.

What is your favorite quote and why?
“To thine own self be true.”
