There are many things I love about Huckabee, many things that have inspired me over the years. First and foremost though, Huckabee represents family, opportunity and excellence, not just sometimes, but all the time! I knew from day one that it was a special place. Opportunity was everywhere. During my first week, I attended an ACE (Achieving Company Excellence) meeting. It was a game changer. Chris Huckabee, our CEO, spoke about thinking outside the box. He centered his talk on Wayne Gretzky's quote, ‘You miss 100 percent of the shots you don't take.' His passion for Huckabee and his commitment to his employees inspired me to be and do my best. I often say that I have the greatest job at Huckabee. Every day, I get to be a part of this growing firm. It's a privilege to watch each new employee start their journey and see that look in their eye when they hear their first inspirational talk, have that one interaction or attend a meeting that inspires them. I wake up each day excited to go to work and be a part of such an amazing team.
