What is one word you would use to describe yourself and why?
Loyal. Commitment is something to be valued in both good times and bad. Honesty is the best virtue. Empathy is one of the most important leadership traits. These traits all define loyalty in a person and guide my interactions daily.
What characteristic do you most admire in others and why?
Fortitude. Careers are hard, family is hard, life is hard. Those who can chase down their dreams without letting all the other noise get in the way of their mission are beyond inspiring.
What do you love most about Topeka and why?
It’s a best-kept secret! Talk to anyone who has moved here from somewhere else, and you’ll see it through their eyes! It’s the friendly people, creative spaces, ease of access, affordable housing, educational opportunities and good community vibes, with plans and projects to only make it better!
