Memphis is home for me. I didn't grow up here as a kid, but I came into my own within the borders of this great city. The people, the places and the stories of this city are what make it a great place to live. Today, I have the privilege of remaining connected to Memphis through my position at FedEx. I serve on the philanthropic investments team, focusing on public education and the environment. FedEx is doing tremendous work in the Social Responsibility space as it relates to the environment, the community and our incredible workforce. Check out http://blog.fedex.com to learn more. Prior to FedEx, I served as the Vice President of Training at The Leadership Academy where I managed the Fellows program as well as developed custom training programs for educators, non-profits and corporations. I know have the privilege of serving on the Board. Today, I live in Brooklyn, New York. While I no longer live in Memphis, I am back regularly for work and stay connected with many of my friends and organizaitons in the city.
