Strong women. They raised me, shaped my life, and taught me to be fearless and independent. Strong women taught me to be proud that I am a woman. To the world, the past year was the Year of the Woman. To me, the past 28 years have been the LIFE of a woman. Empowering and showcasing strong women is not new, but it is bigger and better than ever before and I am proud to be a part of it.

In early 2018, I was soul searching. In that moment, I looked toward my strengths and values for guidance. I asked, ‘what am I good at and how can I use my talents to do what I love?’ I am a positive, hard-working, and motivated person and I love being surrounded by strong women. I realized I could use my talents to create the #femmepowered environment I wanted to be in.
