" One can choose to go back towards safety or forward towards growth. Growth must be chosen again and again; fear must be overcome again and again." By Abraham Maslow
I encountered Ramona's artwork at her home in Vancouver. I was a ninth grader in boarding school and her kind and hospitable parents offered to host me on weekends. Ramona was away so I inherited her room during the school year. Her room was one of a kind and a testament of her creative skills. I was mesmerized by the mural displayed on her wall and the unique set up of her personal space.
When you put talent and stamina in a mixer you get Ramona. She is an artist, a pianist and a Latin dancer. She is never short of creative ideas and seamlessly work towards perfecting her goals.
It is such a privilege to have Ramona on our platform and look forward to sharing her ideas with our associates.
