In Pictures: East of the River Innovators Awards @ The R.I.S.E. Center

Big hugs to my friends, colleagues and family (who drove 4 hours!) who attended just to share this special moment with me. It was amazing and I will be forever moved by your expressions of love and support.

And a huge "congratulations" to my fellow honorees who exemplify the very definition of "badass"!
