Why are you a strategist for good?
“I believe in the responsibility to steward and invest in a better world than the one I grew up in — and am raising a young person in. Working as a vessel for social good is how I can do that.”
What’s your superpower?
“I can’t control the wind or rain, however my justice sensitivity paired with my emotional intellegence is superpower-ish.”
