Synergy
The power of 1+1=5 has always amazed me. I'm speaking, of course, about the Law of Synergy, which states: when combined, two different forces, agents, or substances can have a shared action whose effects are greater than merely their sum.
Aligning myself with people, projects, and organizations who embrace the synergy mindset has always been a catalyst for my success .
"for over a decade now, I’ve lived and worked between Los Angeles and Atlanta. I aim to continue building on this bi-coastal synergy with my next chapter."
