What is one leadership lesson you've learned in your career and what impact has it made on you? 
Sometimes you have to make a difficult or unpopular decision. While others may not always like the decision, it is important to be strong enough to stand by them. You can't take it personally if people get upset, you can only power through and show people that the unpopular decision is sometimes the right decision. 

If you could choose one superhuman ability, what would it be and why? 
Never needing to sleep. There is so much to do, professionally and personally, that it would be fantastic to never need to sleep and to constantly move and do things!  

What is one word you would use to describe yourself and why? 
Conscientious. I take great pride in my work and always strive to be thorough and complete.   

What are you doing to ensure you continue to grow and develop as a leader? 
Taking advantage of opportunities when they are presented. Every opportunity is another chance to grow and learn. Being involved with programs like Leadership Greater Topeka is a great way to develop more skills as a leader.
