Why did you start volunteering with WIT?

I chose WIT because of the impact this organization has on women and girls of all ages. WIT equippes them with the tools, opportunities and network to pursue their dreams and make an impact in the technology space. I started volunteering because I wanted to give back and empower women to reach their potential without being held back by any barriers or lack of opportunity.

What about you…What would you like to share that people may not know?

One fun thing that me is that I am ambidextrous in the sense where I was born left-hand dominant but over the years, I have naturally picked up doing things right hand vs left hand. Last year, I taught myself to switch from playing tennis with my left hand to playing with my right hand due to a bad left shoulder. I can also play bocce ball, golf, throw the frisbee, and bowl with my right hand. I wonder what else I could switch over to my right hand…sounds like a fun challenge!
