What recent honor, achievement or recognition has meant the most to you and why?
I was recently honored by the Long Island Hispanic Chamber of Commerce with the 2015 Director of the Year award. The organization recognizes Long Island's top professional women in the business and not-for-profit fields for their business acumen, mentoring and community involvement. It was rewarding to be acknowledged for the marketing and business development programs I execute for the firm. It also gave me the opportunity to thank great people who have helped guide my career through the years.
What is your favorite quote?
One of my favorite quotes is by philosopher Henry David Thoreau, "What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals." It is a positive message about personal growth.
