Working inferential statistics on a Sunday afternoon…. I’m one of those nerds that loves the math of this class. #UTDataScience #LifelongLearning

One week into my PG program on Data Science and I forgot how much I like to code. It’s a frustrating, yet satisfying experience. Someone asked me why I was doing this program so late in my career. For me, learning isn’t just for the young. We need to flex our brains for life! #KeepLearning

I can’t wait to start this program to elevate my data analysis and insight generation skills. Finding the gold nugget in a sea of data is so rewarding! #LifelongLearner #UTAustin #DataScience

After 25 years in IT Management, I transferred to HR. Now that I have a bit of runtime, I have decided to pursue a SHRM-CP so that I gain more HR knowledge and demonstrate my proficiency. It’s never too late to learn something new and broaden your perspective! #LifelongLearner #ProfessionalDevelopment #SHRMCP

Second year to attend Women Who Rock, a United Way event that helps fund a child care scholarship for women working on university degrees. Always an inspiring event and this year featured Jessica Watkins, a female astronaut who just got got back from the International Space Station. Talk about doing hard things! Thanks for going with me, Lynette Duval! #WomenWhoRock #UnitedWay #EmpoweringWomen #Leadership

Love when we can fit in small celebrations and come together in person to socialize at work. These donuts were on point for Valentine’s Day and a fun way to recognize our United Way commitment. #FunAtWork #MeetingInPerson

ExxonMobil prioritizes charitable giving and encourages employees to volunteer. I spent time with my team sorting toys for the families in need in our community. Look at all of the toys - so many good people opening their hearts for kids who wouldn’t normally have presents for Christmas! #exxonmobil #unitedway #northwestassistanceministries #charity #volunteering

So cool to see our robot dressed up for Halloween and passing out candy in the office! #FunAtWork

I met with one of my favorite people yesterday. He happens to be a retiree that still values mentoring. I always look forward to hearing his thoughts, getting his perspective, and generally just catching up. We need more Jan Volckaert in our lives. #mentoring #leadership #friendship
