These are the words I have lived by for the last 20 years after hearing them from a visiting missionary.
Service and Leadership is not just an ideal, it is
a lived value and example that I strive for in my life.
My passion for the community, can be seen through my work with Fresh Start Women's Foundation, Savvy Ladies and in providing Financial literacy to the AZ National Guard as she I work to advances my commitment to further the financial empowerment of women and families through education.
