“As the founder of the MMV Leadership Award, I am driven by a profound belief that recognizing and celebrating leadership can change lives, uplift communities, and create a ripple effect of positive change. This project is more than just an initiative for me—it is a reflection of my life’s purpose and my passion for helping others rise to their full potential.

My journey to creating the MMV Industry Leadership Award stems from personal experiences and my deep commitment to seeing people succeed. As a business owner, artist, and advocate for personal growth, I’ve seen firsthand the impact that mentorship, recognition, and support can have on someone’s life. This award is my way of contributing to that legacy.

Having lost someone dear to me, I understand how precious life is and how important it is to make an impact while we still can. The MMV Leadership Award is rooted in that understanding: to honor those who lead with love, integrity, and a passion for making a difference. It’s my way of spreading love, joy, and encouragement in a world that often forgets to celebrate those who work quietly behind the scenes to make their industries and communities better.“
