Office Happenings:

In January, our year kicked off with an energetic start as we engaged in a firm-wide Move Challenge, promoting health and fitness among our team. Congratulations to our top three individuals, Shanita Walker, Jocelyn Strong, and Carla Daniel, as well as our winning team, Purple!

Later in the month, on January 25th, we took a moment to celebrate National Fun at Work Day, indulging in games and a well-deserved happy hour to strengthen team camaraderie.

As February rolled around, we embraced the spirit of celebration once again, marking National Margarita Day on February 22nd with delicious food and refreshing drinks.

Additionally, we came together to shower Jasmine with love and well wishes at her wedding shower on February 19th, sharing in the joy of this special occasion.

Throughout February, we also dedicated time to recognize and appreciate the contributions of our team members, showcasing their achievements and support on our Appreciation Month Wall.

These events not only added excitement and enjoyment to our days but also strengthened the bonds within our team!
