"To be named on the inaugural Power Mom list was nothing short of humbling! Thank you @marieclairemag and @momsfirstus for recognizing the power of Motherhood. The evening was stunning! Honored to share it with my son and beautiful mom ☺️ ..."
"We operate in this power to show our children — sons and daughters alike — that success and love, ambition and nurture, are not opposites. They are partners."
