She has been responsible for the leader development and institutional training for the second largest branch in the army with over 100,000 members of the Ordinance Corps. She will be sharing her humbling stories and strategic application of experience and has provided invaluable services to the public sector in developing new leaders, team cohesion and improving training programs.
