Key Statements

"But my focus, I wouldn't say that it's necessarily changed, but I've started to really be hyper focused on equity and inclusion. And I say that because, again, COVID and racial unrest has laid bare all the inequities that especially BIPOC or people of color are experiencing."

"We're also making sure that we are targeting to have one out of three new hires be people of color, and also looking at gender in our D and T or digital and technology space, as well as our field."
