What do you attribute your success to?
I attribute my success to strong mentorship, a willingness to embrace feedback, and the ability to stay grounded in purpose while driving innovation at the intersection of education and technology. The relationships that shaped my journey—whether brief or lasting—taught me to seek insight in unexpected places and to use that wisdom to grow strategically and authentically.
What values are most important to you in your work and personal life?
Authenticity, curiosity, and continuous growth are core values that guide both my work and personal life. Outside of work, I’m a foodie who loves cooking, wine tasting, and Matt Pilates—and depending on the season, you’ll find me either binge-reading or binge-crocheting!
