Mikelle works to bring visibility for underserved communities into the board room and is personally committed to seeking opportunities where she and others can make an impact.

Mikelle is a strong advocate for these strategies, their power to strengthen organizational performance, and their essential role in serving those most vulnerable in our
communities.
