I am in the process of making a career <br /> switch to Social Work (receiving my MSW from UNC in May)due to my strong desire to impact <br /> people and communities at a more local level with an emphasis on social needs rather than <br /> business needs. <br /> Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br /> I received my B.A. from UNC in 2001 and wanted to come back to Chapel Hill for many years. <br /> Finally, in 2014, I came back to attend graduate school. My husband and I have put down roots <br /> and we intend to stay. I m looking forward to getting more involved in my community as I near <br /> the end of my MSW degree. In addition, my research area of interest is innovation and <br /> entrepreneurship at the intersection of social issues. My belief is that the business community <br /> and the human services community can work together to improve peoples lives in the <br /> communities we live in. <br /> Conflict of Interest: <br />
