What’s your secret talent that no one knows about? 
One of my superpowers is that of a master networker.  I take this on very seriously and look to nurture, support, and grow my network wherever and however I can.

Who, living or dead, would you like to eat dinner with the most? And why?
Nelson Mandela – he changed the world view on countless levels and serves as an exemplary model for leadership.  For 20 years, he directed a campaign of peaceful, nonviolent defiance against the South African government and its racist policies. He was a master in intergroup communication and negotiation which led to his release, the end of apartheid, and the dawn of democracy in South Africa.

Who or what inspires you?
I am constantly inspired by people that acknowledge their challenges and opportunities and find ways to break through and make something better happen for themselves.

What is the craziest thing you’ve ever done?
Doing the “Silk Road” in China on a bicycle!
