"Growth doesn’t happen by chance. Whether it is personal growth or business growth, understanding and taking an interest in the specific needs and challenges of the people that I work with, while focusing on the solutions rather than the problems, is how I help build a better working world. It gives me a real sense of pride and satisfaction and I hope that I instill that passion in others."
