Her passion for equality continues, affording her the opportunity to work with a great team at the Palm Beach County Office of Equal Business Opportunity (OEBO) as a Senior Small Business Development Specialist. At the OEBO, she is a subject matter expert in business information for Palm Beach County residents seeking to become business owners or looking to further their current business ownership opportunities by becoming a registered vendor and certified S/M/WBE with the Palm Beach County OEBO.
