Supporting WIT…
Why WIT? Why did you start volunteering with WIT?
I’ve been a corporate sponsor and champion for WIT for years, and felt the need to give back more since I get so much from the WIT Community!
What do you find most rewarding about volunteering with WIT ?
I love working with women and advocates – whether it’s helping to connect people to new opportunities, sharing knowledge and career pathing, or just being part of a social circle who shares the same ambitions, successes, and challenges – I feel like I have an army of support!
What is your favorite program / event within WIT?
WIT Connect – so much pride (and a few happy tears) at how much impact WIT makes!
