From Employee to Keynote Speaker: A Full-Circle Moment

There are moments in life when you realize just how far you've come. Recently, I had the incredible honor of stepping on stage as a keynote speaker at Accenture's Denver International Women's Day event—one that felt deeply personal. Why? Because years ago, I was on the other side, sitting in the audience as an employee, taking in the wisdom of others.

Now, through my work with Level Up Enterprises, I had the opportunity to share insights on Building a Community Through Meaningful Connections—something I’ve lived, learned, and now help others cultivate.

This experience was more than just a speech; it was a full-circle moment. I know firsthand the challenges of feeling disconnected in the workplace. That’s why I’m passionate about transforming company cultures from the inside out, helping teams foster genuine engagement that fuels personal and professional growth.

To those wondering what’s next—lean into your passion. Keep showing up, learning, and taking bold steps toward what excites you. Every connection you make, and every lesson you absorb shapes your path. One day, it won’t just be inspiration you’re taking in—it’ll be wisdom you’re sharing.

Here’s to growth, transformation, and the power of community!
