I have also facilitated the participation of Hopeworks Camden in the Future of Work Accelerator, a statewide initiative that supports worker-centric solutions and innovations. Through these efforts, I have enabled hundreds of youth to achieve their personal and professional goals and to contribute to the social and economic development of their communities.
