How did you start getting involved with GET?
I was looking for a group of growth-minded people my own age.
When I moved to Arizona in 2014 and for the first few years, all of the groups and association I frequented were made up of folks 20-30 years older than me.
One of the things that's kept me around is the focus on doing good in the community that GET champions. That definitely wasn't something I expected to encounter, but the influence of other young professionals - my peers - making a positive impact on the world challenged me to get involved.
Why did you decide to become a GET Phoenix Member?
I enjoyed attending events and the mission of GET. The idea of helping more young professionals experience the professional and personal growth that GET makes possible sounded like a fun and important think to be part of.
Fun fact about yourself?
Once upon a time I was taught yoga and spin classes 2-3 times a week.
