Purpose is the Reason You Journey
Presented by J. Nicole Martin Lawton of Phoenix Language Services, Inc.
Nicole will talk about her transition, during the heart of the pandemic, from big law to the world of language access. As she assumed the operational control of a 28-year old business which was founded by her father, Nicole experienced the profound impact of her father’s legacy.
Nicole will share how language access is an essential component of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and how fostering language access has become Nicole’s life mission.
