Favorite Vynamic event

Summit Up every Spring, when we have the opportunity to gather as a full Vynamic team in one location. It's the most energizing day!

Professional passion

Supporting clients in the development and execution of strategic plans that help them grow, increase efficiency, or improve their company culture.

Community causes

I'm a Court-Appointed Special Advocate (CASA), which allows me to champion the best interests of a specific child/family in foster care and work to achieve reunification or permanency for them.
