Q: What do you do at Gallup?

A: In my role, I help organizations create exceptional workplace cultures where their employees are positive, innovative and get to do what they do best.

A: I think changing the world starts with small steps. I genuinely want my clients to be as engaged and excited to come into work as I am, so even something that may feel minor, like answering a simple question, feels bigger because I know that I've had an impact on their day. I lead with Developer and thrive on knowing that the courses I sell help people live their best lives. I never feel like I'm just clocking hours or selling a product at my job. I feel like I'm truly changing the world.
