With years spent as a board appointee for the Georgia Department of Community Health and as the founder of a Medical Interpreting Trade School, I constantly see firsthand how women leaders shape policy and support communities from the ground up. I’ve passionately worked to bring diverse voices to the forefront in both healthcare and education, so I believe my perspective could add some real value to your listeners.
My journey as a candidate for Georgia Superintendent of Schools, along with my ongoing work empowering others through healthcare and education leadership, has allowed me to witness both the rewards and challenges women face as changemakers. I believe a meaningful conversation could inspire your listeners, especially those who are navigating their own unique paths in public service or community leadership.
