On Leadership

One Very Vivid Memory That I have is of a Duplex Apartment Fire in the Heat of July.
That Day a Small Woman in Stature was in High Demand, of the Many Tasks I had That day, I recall Being Lifted through a Window, Crawling in a Small Space, Extinguishing the Fire, Pulling the Ceiling and Overhauling.
Those were the Days that Prepared me, the Experience I Needed to Successfully Lead an Organization.

As Women, We have so much to offer. I always choose collaboration over competition.

You are a BETTER wife, mother, friend and military member when you are able to take time out for YOU!

Have a good balance between work and your family....

 

It's your family that will be there when you decide to hang up the uniform.
