What brings you joy?

Quality time with loved ones.

Why did you decide to work at Geneva Global?

I have benefited from charitable giving throughout my life, so I wanted this opportunity to learn more about philanthropy and contribute to important causes as well.

What’s your favorite part of your job?

Getting to support a team of kind, hard-working, and passionate people.

What’s your best travel advice?

I understand the urge to hop from country to country when traveling, but I recommend quality over quantity. Try letting yourself get bored while traveling. It’s harder than you might think, and you’ll appreciate things in ways you never would’ve imagined.
