I constantly think about the heart of Jesus and servant leadership. Leading with love, serving with kindness, and doing hard things in the midst of adversity.

Career advice: "Always keep learning and growing, and do not think there is a destination. As soon as you become an expert, God has a bigger plan for you. See challenges as an opportunity to level up, don’t take it personally or negatively. It is simply a way for you to level up and grow."
On Human Resources: “We are fun! We are productive, but we also enjoy planning activities for employees. When the community gets together, it feels like being part of a large extended family."
