WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER YOUR CORE STRENGTHS?
Encouragement, relationships, and building community. Making people feel good is something that comes naturally to me. I love to see others win and do what they were designed to.
ADVICE FOR A YOUNG WOMAN ENTERING HER PROFESSIONAL CAREER.
Be authentically you—comparison will hold you back from your own strengths. While you may look around and see other women that have other talents you don’t possess, your strengths could be the difference maker. Be smart, but trust your gut. Don’t be afraid to use your voice and your ideas to create new pathways that are different than the way things have always been done.
WHY TOPEKA?
I grew up in Topeka (from 6th grade through high school). I moved back, temporarily, as a pit stop before moving out of Kansas for good. “Six months tops” I told myself, but eight years later, I’m still here. I met the love of my life, found a career path I am beyond passionate about and have fallen in love with Topeka.
WHAT INSPIRES YOU?
My relationship with Jesus and reminding others of their worth and how beautiful this life is despite their circumstances.
