Q&A with Virginia
Q: Who is someone you admire and why do you admire them?
A: “I admired Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who would not let societal biases that created barricades keep her from achieving her goals. Her perseverance, good judgement and humanistic nature made her a true heroine for me and so many others.”
