Fun Facts
Which book, movie or podcast left a lasting impression on you? Why?
I remember watching G.I. Jane so many times when I was a little girl. It’s a fictional movie about the first woman to endure special operations training in the Navy. The main theme in this movie is about pushing through adversity and showing how resilient a human can be, even when enduring the most unfavorable of circumstances. I attribute a lot of my success to all the hard work and passion I have put in, even when faced with obstacles. The journey can sometimes be rough, but the destination is always worth it.
