Aspirations
 

I aspire to learn something new everyday and somehow impact the community where I have influence.  I aspire to use the depth and diversity of my experiences to earn a reputation of being a professional who can act as an advocate, change agent and, relationship builder.  I aspire to demostrate my intent to communicate effectively with credibility.  I aspire to help others benefit from or uphold the missions and visions of helping organizations or programs even when they don't completely agree, understand, or embrace their processes.  I aspire to engage in efforts that make our populations healthier and more just.  I aspire to invest in a career that  brings attention to other's strengths, adds to their well-being, and empowers them to move forward when situations are complicated or challenges exist.
