    “I enjoy leading the Women's Employee Resource group because it allows me to empower and support fellow female colleagues, foster a sense of community, and advocate for gender equality and inclusivity within CN.

    In my job, I’m responsible for identifying new business opportunities, building relationships with potential clients, and driving growth and revenue for CN through strategic partnerships and market expansion initiatives.”

    “Being a part of the Veterans ERG gives me the opportunity to serve. The Veterans ERG is great platform for fellow veterans to continue our mission in support of one another, our families and communities, and CN as a whole.

    It was an honor to serve with you while in uniform and that honor continues to this day. Semper Fidelis.”
