In my role I serve as a voice and connector of business, government, and higher education in the Research Triangle Region of North Carolina. My primary responsibility is to market the RTRP 10-county region externally, as well as host delegations and business leaders when they visit. As a Raleigh native, it gives me great pleasure to introduce guests to both our region and our people who make it great! I am passionate about making the Triangle Region and the State of North Carolina a great place for everyone The thing I enjoy the most about my job is the opportunity to build close, personal relationships with so many wonderful people and organizations, and to build startegic partnership and collaboration opportunities globally.
