Do you have a favorite quote or motto?
How about an equation?!
aptitude + attitude = altitude
Who’s your hero?
My parents. As a parent and spouse now, it is so clear to me ALL the sacrifices they made in their lives. To be present and actively engaged in their children’s lives while having their own stellar careers and achievements is a real gift.
What is your superpower?
Staying calm under intense pressure. Figuring out complicated situations.
