Although I started Leadership Howard County with a good familiarity of the organizations making up the county, LHC took my understanding to a whole new level. Since graduating, I have been in contact with many of my classmates as well as the professionals who presented to us throughout the year. Leadership Howard County gave me the opportunity to develop many wonderful friendships and I look forward to continuing our work together to build a stronger Howard County.
I have developed relationships in sectors of the community that would otherwise have taken years to create. I have an appreciation of how complex the work I am doing in the community is, and I have been given the opportunity to connect and be connected so that human services organizations in Howard County can survive and thrive. It is important to me to take advantage of the opportunity to work within Leadership to keep the programs and activities vibrant and relevant.
