"I founded Momentum in 2003 with a focus ​on diverse and under-represented talent in the multi-​cultural market. Now diversity is a thing and we are ​here for it!!"

She is our flight commander at Momentum, expertly ​navigating our aircraft with precision. We adore ​having her on board for her sharp attention to detail ​and knack for capturing our brand's spirit.
