Team Culture
Inclusive Team Building
It’s all about the people so it’s no surprise that I am committed to a rigorously inclusive work environment and store experience. At work that means mindful recruiting processes, generously onboarding new teammates, and assuming positive intent, especially when the pressure is on. I am deeply engaged in and passionate about ERG work, mentorship, and college recruiting.
