Upon moving back to my hometown in 2010, my experience in the Leadership Duluth program was absolutely invaluable. Though I grew up in Duluth, I learned so much about the heart and humble beginnings of our great city which, in and of itself, created a foundational understanding of the professional world we all live and work in today. Not only did I create a network of fellow professionals I know I can rely on at any moment, I also created a network of lasting friendships.
