Working with the Melton Foundation continues to present a unique opportunity to further my personal and professional mission to Identify, Support and Instill, High Performance Skills. Teaching, learning and growing with an organization and its members that have taught me so much and continues to influence my own growth as an agent of change is exciting and fulfilling.

Recently, I had the opportunity to reflect on my association with the Melton Foundation spanning across a decade and on what lies ahead for the Foundation. Closely observing these projects, I witnessed the sea-change improvement in the quality of initiatives championed by Melton Fellows, with an ever-greater focus on inclusiveness and wide-reaching impact in local communities. This has been inspirational to me and hopefully to aspiring fellowship candidates for the cohort of 2021.

Since I was a young girl, I was eager to work on something meaningful, and the Melton Foundation experience, my projects and initiatives as a proud Melton Fellow and Global Citizen was that “work”. I found experiences, bonds, and a safe space where I could develop my ideas and contribute back to our vast global village through my skills. At the Melton Foundation, I have been always encouraged to reach my fullest potential and for that I am truly grateful!
