What is your favorite weekend trip?
I've been to Napa Valley once and I really loved the environment and of course, the wine. I would love to go back there to experience more of what it has to offer.
Sharing our core values is very important to us. What does Passion, Discipline, Innovation, Teaming and Integrity mean to you?
I believe PDITI are great core vales that anyone can use to apply to anything that they want to succeed in. The one particular value that stands out to me is Teaming. I believe working with likeminded people who follow the same values, anything can be achieved. Passion: Passion is what gives all of us meaning in our work. It is what gives us the ability to go and accomplish our goals. Passion makes us strive for excellence and become better at what we do. Discipline: I would like to think of discipline as being consistent. Being consistent and not wavering from your beliefs, work ethic, or integrity. No matter how hard the situation gets, you stay disciplined and stick to your core. Innovation: Innovation to me, means taking a different route from everyone and making it a success. Success doesn't always happen when you try to be innovative, but it is game-changing when it is. Teaming: Teaming is essential for success. I believe that a group of highly skilled individuals with no teamwork will not perform as well as a team who have less skilled individuals but can work together as a team. Integrity: Integrity and discipline kind of go hand-in-hand. Integrity is about being honest to yourself, your peers, and your clients. This promotes healthy relationships which will make growth better.
