My leadership style is heavily influenced by my culture, my experiences in navigating my education and colleagues who have modeled those leadership values. Through my career I actively work to address issues of equity that marginalized groups face within administrative systems. I believe organization efficiency is achieved through diverse and inclusive work environments. As a leader I support diversity and inclusiveness by amplifying voices of those who needs to be included in the design and decision-making process. I believe that you can be a leader in any role, as a colleague you can model leadership for your team and as someone in management I have had the opportunity to learn leadership skills from individuals I have supervised. I approach projects from a learning perspective, allowing to me analyze all aspects of the project including, objectives as well as the strengths and challenges of the team. This process allows me to better support the project team by framing concepts and systems in a way that engages collaboration. My goal is for my team to feel invested in the quality and outcome of the product. My professional aspirations are rooted in equity. My career has focused on bridging access for underserved communities to resources and through those roles I have reflected on my goals and the responsibility that being a leader carries. Since stepping into management I have observed how organizational frameworks have a ripple effect on the organization’s culture and their direct services. As I advance in my career I work towards improving as a collaborative leader and analyzing organizational frameworks for equity and success.
