I am grateful to the Presidential Precinct for recognizing the work that I do through the Young Leaders Award. In my acceptable speech, I reflect on the important work of training leaders done by the Precinct as well as the concept of leading through inspiration. Thanks to Neal and the Precinct team for inspiring the next generation of civic leaders. Thanks to John and Renee Grisham for your continued support on this journey.
Watch the introduction by John Grisham and my acceptance speech. Your struggles are not invisible.
