My philosphy

Standing up for people is something I have been doing since I was a young girl. I was raised to stand up for what is right, no matter how much pressure or opposition you face. This caused me a great deal of trouble in school as I would champion the cause of anyone being treated unfairly, or would stand up for myself and tell the teacher or principal that they were wrong. My parents knew I was not being disobedient, rather I was acting in the very manner in which I was being raised. They praised me for doing the right thing when it would have been easier for me to walk away. I am steadfast in this belief to this day. In my adult life I apply the same lessons taught to me as a young girl, I stand up for what is right, fair, and just; and I make no excuses for my stubbornness in these areas.
