“When I went to college, research in one of my courses indicated that women are less likely to take leadership positions or speak in class. That wasn’t a problem for me thanks to Mercy. I was never in doubt of my own abilities when I went to college and beyond, and that sense of confidence has let me pursue my goals at full force.”
