I am blessed to have the opportunity to share parts of my career journey through my LinkedIn post below. I hope it gives light and voice to my LGBTQ+ Family.
I am also incredibly grateful to work at San Diego Workforce Partnership where I get to bring my WHOLE #authentic self to work and to be celebrated for it.
I will leave you with this thought to marinade on…
“Growing up in the Midwest, I spent many late summer nights of my childhood playing flashlight tag. Using professionalism as a guideline for hiring the best candidate is a lot like playing flashlight tag in your talent pool–your vision is inevitably limited to only where the light shines and leaves large gaps of talent being overlooked. Broadening our ideas of professionalism is one small step we can take towards dismantling current norms and provide opportunity for opening doors that generations before us never had keys for.”
