What honor, achievement or recognition means the most to you and why? Mayor Walsh’s Council of Millennials, SPARK, nominates local change-makers in the annual SPARK Impact Awards. As a council alumna, I was nominated as a 2020 finalist in the “Community Building and Neighborhood Improvement” category for my placemaking work at Samuels & Associates and for volunteering at the Boston Main Streets Foundation. This nomination is a humbling recognition of my aspiration to build better community through my career, whether through conscientious real estate development or by supporting urban economic growth.
