I've always said that life's too short not to make an impact...and I hope that's impactful for somebody! I've been very lucky in having some exciting opportunities throughout my career, but the opportunity that inspired me the most was the one I almost didn't have the courage to take.

- A better appreciation for what impact means to you
- How to think about your transferable skills in relation to your passions
