I take pride in improving internal functions as my efforts allow my colleagues to spend their time and energy serving our clients."

I’m able to pursue projects and opportunities that align with my passions and have the potential to shape the future of our industry. The best part? I know I have the full support of my colleagues to help turn those ideas into reality."

I love my role because I’m able to use my expertise in different ways and mentor younger colleagues. I enjoy helping them discover their passions and find learning opportunities.
