a shining star {Listography 2011}.

 

Each Wednesday, Emily, @ Notorious MLE, Danielle, @ Elleinad Spir, and myself are working our way through the lists of Listography 2011.

I was a ball of nerves.  She was ball of energy.  I was shy... quiet... self-conscious.  She was bold... gregarious... confident.  I was an enthusiastic student, ready to learn.  She, an enthusiastic teacher, ready to empower.  Passion like no other.  Silly, yet professional.  Always a story to tell, an example to share.  Approachable.  Authentic.  And just what I needed.

      

And she is the "most memorable co-worker from my past." 

  

{Hired as a Starbucks barista in 1996 by Sandy; led to a 12-year career...  Although I had many great leaders along the way, she was the *spark.*}

      

~Visit my pal Emily if you have a 'co-worker' post to link, & to read the others.  Surely some good stories to tell.~
