Yesterday was a day I’ll never forget! I was honored to receive the Courageous Leadership Award at the Q10 Leadership Conference with some folks that I have admired for a long time like Dr. Judy White. The event was organized by the amazing Dr. Talisa S. from Transformational Leadership Consulting. Her servant leadership and vision to address the needs of diverse students through the #Q10 elements is more than empowering. Also a huge thank you to @therealankur194 Dr. Nyree Clark Tonya Coats , leaders across @sbcountyschools and so many more for your constant support and encouragement. I’m forever grateful. As I stood on that stage, I couldn’t stop thinking about my dad. He’s one of the biggest reasons I’m here today, always reminding us to dream big and believe we could achieve anything. His words, encouragement and faith in me have shaped so much of who I am. Right after receiving the award, I called my dad, and the rest of my UK family to share the news with them. Hearing my dad's voice and excitement made the moment even more special. Celebrating this achievement on his birthday felt like the perfect way to honor his birthday! Happy birthday dad! Here’s to leading with courage, purpose, and gratitude! This year, I'm mostly grateful to be surrounded by outstanding leaders. The last picture was a moment I experienced recently at a conference where a group of women stood and shared our appreciation of each other and the work we do. It was a special moment that I wanted to cherish #Gratitude #Leadership #WomenInTech #Womenleadership #Family #Inspiration
