to take on the challenge of building "omg-this-is-amazing" experiences around the country's most-maligned government offices, including the DMV, so if you ever need a passport renewed or an expedited DMV appointment, just let her know!As an extrovert and a lifelong learner, she is fulfilled by creating deep working relationships with sharp people and helping develop ambitious, tight-knit teams. As a manager, she endeavors to make herself redundant by empowering people smarter than herself.
