"There’s a lot of people who are doing really good stuff out there but, ‘How do you make it more efficient?’ is kind of where I saw the intersection of my skill set and what was needed."
"There’s so many amazing organizations and people in Pittsburgh doing amazing things, but if you don’t have anybody who knows who they are and how to find them, then people just get lost in the shuffle."
"My mission is to be an advocate for creating a more equitable and more just and open society that respects and takes into account all people, particularly those whose experiences are not always taken into consideration."
"I feel a calling to be doing this work, on this specific campus, to create an environment where people can really focus on what they came here to do."
"I’m really dedicated to this work. This is my life’s calling. And grateful, I am really grateful for all of the opportunities Pittsburgh has afforded me."
"I don’t think my goals have any parameters, nor have they ever. I feel very lucky to have experienced everything I have, and I’m very open to whatever the universe wants to bring me next."
"What drives me is just coming here to work and being able to communicate with all of my employees in the same way that I communicate as a deaf person."
