"Leadership Academy began at a time where I was taking on a myriad of different leadership roles in my career. It enabled me to work through strategies on how to take the challenges of my personal and professional life and utilize them to catalyze my growth as a leader. I also got to build community and network in the college with other wonderful professionals across the college. The experience has been invaluable to my professional trajectory and my personal journey."
