OUR VALUES

COMPASSION

Choose to care.

“Compassion from my perspective is caring about yourself and the people around you. From taking care of your mental health to advocating positive team culture to your teammates, compassion is a skill that I strive to live with every day to benefit myself as a person as well as the people around me who I care about.”

—Eric Correa, Junior,
