How to Live MLK Day Every Day
I only have a vague memory of Dr. Martin Luther King. I was just 3 years old when he was brutally assassinated. I simply remember seeing the reports about him when my dad was watching the news. As someone who is white, I really have no understanding of what it is like for others to […]
Company Culture by Disney
Back in September my family took a vacation at Disney World in Florida. I had always wanted to stay at one of the Disney resorts. (Yes I am still a kid at heart). The week was a blast with all the rides, shows and way too much food. However, beyond all the activities I was captivated by […]
