Personality Profile
What character strength do you value the most and why?
Leadership as a character strength is important to me because it reflects one's ability to guide, inspire, and bring out the best in others. It matters not just in formal roles but in everyday life—whether I’m organizing a project, helping a family member, or contributing in an under-resourced community it allows me to create an impact and empower others, as well as grow as a person by developing confidence in not only myself but in others.
How do your top character strengths support your work at TMF?
My character strengths empower me to lead with heart, act with integrity, and bring a spirit of purpose and passion to everything I do. These characteristics help me build authentic connections with others, ensuring that I lead with compassion and empathy. They also allow me to step up with confidence, inspire action, and help guide others toward a shared mission of service and impact.
What do you enjoy most about working with veterans, survivors, and inspired civilians?
What I enjoy most about working with veterans, survivors, and inspired civilians is the sense of unity and purpose that comes from bringing together people with such diverse backgrounds but a shared commitment to service. Veterans bring resilience and leadership, survivors bring courage and perspective, and inspired civilians bring fresh energy and passion. Being part of a team where everyone contributes their unique strengths toward a common mission is deeply fulfilling. It reminds me that service is bigger than any one person—it’s about community, connection, and carrying forward a legacy of character and commitment.
