What inspires you about the TPY mission?

STEM offers boundless opportunities for the students of our future generation to discover their paths to success. I firmly believe that every student should have access to these opportunities. TechPoint Foundation for Youth is effectively opening doors with impactful programs, and I am eager to contribute to this journey.

A little bit about me: With over two decades of experience as a transformational technology leader at Sallie Mae, I am passionate about witnessing others thrive through opportunities and the art of the possible. Despite undergoing a hip replacement at a young age, I remain an avid golfer and tennis player. I also enjoy home construction projects, family activities, and once even caught a pickpocket on the subway in Rome.
