She doesn't just want to make leaders better. She wants to help us be better humans.
It's easy to see a lifelong HR leader and assume the path was always clear. This conversation pulls back the curtain on the real journey of a native Austinite who built her career from the inside out. We explore her path to leadership, her love for her community, and why she believes HR must be the example setters.
