I’m taking on a challenge. I’m learning 21 people’s names in 21 days. Actually, I'm learning more than their just their names. These are not random people off the street, these are people in my world but I've never met them. I had a desire to know these people even before I photographed them and learned their names. After I photographed each person, I interviewed them about leadership, their view on people and their one word to the world. I chose to focus on leadership because these 21 people have led me in one way or another. Now, I know their names.

1 A Kind Cup Of Sugar: Emily

      Meet my neighbor, Emily, apartment #14. I've lived in apartment 15 for over a year now, judge me if you want but Emily and I didn't know each others names until today. She's even offered to fix my flat tire without knowing my name. So today, I got to know her a little and this is what she has to say:

      Her thoughts on people: "I feel like people are good. If you expect they are going to be nice people they will live up to those expectations. I learned this when I first started singing, my vocal instructor told me I would be able to sing a very high range and sing in front of a lot of people, with those expectations  I sang better right away."
     What makes a good leader and her leadership motto: "Consistency, what the leader promises and follows through with is important. I live by example, I do what I expect others to do and hope that they follow and give others little encouragements."


Her word to the world: Welcome
