Words of Wisdom
“I believe repairing the world begins with equity; creating fair access to opportunities, resources, and support so that everyone has a chance to reach their potential. At the same time, I believe lasting change is fueled by personal drive: the determination to pursue something better for yourself and others, even when the environment you grow up in does not always provide positive examples or encouragement. When equity and self-motivation come together, they empower individuals to break barriers, uplift their communities, and create opportunities for future generations.”
