From Kayla

What's your secret advantage at work?
My passion for storytelling. I have an MFA in creative writing and have published numerous short stories and creative essays, so that skillset — clear communication, effective written comms, structure, analytics, organization, research, crafting compelling narratives — empowers everything I do at AUC.

What about your life today would make your younger self proud?
My younger self always dreamed of moving away from small-town Georgia to build a life of my own and now I've done just that. The glow-up is real!

Any hidden talents?
I love to sing, especially karaoke, and can do a solid Cher impression.
