I got this from Emily’s List today and I just had to share!
The Right Wing decided it wanted to play Monday Morning Quarterback with my lady parts this year.

I taught my first formal leadership development class for FedEx Office (then FedEx Kinko’s) in 2007. It was probably the funnest position I’ve held with the company and it really crystalized the value and importance I place on organizational leadership. I was president of the Future Business Leaders of America club in high school and I’ve been the proud Chief Queer since we launched Queer Fresno back in 2002.
