What’s your current position?

I am an Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Specialist at Tobyhanna Army Depot. I have been at the depot for over 4 years. Our office primarily works to protect the Tobyhanna workforce from any unlawful discrimination relating to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, reprisal, disability and genetic information.

What would you say most motivates you to do the work you do? 

What motivates me to do the work I do is the assistance and resources I provide to others. I am most passionate about my impact I have on the organization.

Where did you grow up and did you go to a college/trade school after high school?

I grew up in Clarks Summit, PA and went to the University of Scranton for my Bachelor’s degree. This was such a special experience to me going to school there, I was surprised of how amazing it ended up being although it was right in my backyard. Go Royals!

Did you have any key mentors or people who deeply influenced who you are?

 I am most definitely deeply motivated by my own potential. I have fallen in love with challenging and surprising myself with what I have the ability to accomplish and learn!

How did you learn about Leadership Lackawanna?

I learned about Leadership Lackawanna through my employer, Tobyhanna Army Depot. Many of my friends and colleagues here spoke so positively about their experience in the program. I have had the same experience! I really met so many great people, developed and refined my personal and professional skills, and made a longtime community impact. It was really special.
