"I aim to deepen my understanding of unconscious biases continually, how they influence my behavior, and impact others in the workplace. This year I have taken a keen interest in diversity and inclusion efforts, especially in light of the Black Lives Matter movement and other calls for equality. Over the past six months, I have immersed myself in multiple online courses, including a course called Race and Cultural Diversity in American Life and History. I took another course on what it means to identify as transgender and gender non-conforming since, admittedly, I had a lot to learn. I am pleased to say that I have learned a great deal about other groups and myself along the way. I am thankful to have worked for highly conscious companies on their diversity efforts and inclusion programs. Some of the efforts I have been part of include changing job ads to include only inclusive phrasing and information. I will continue to educate myself and broaden my knowledge as I believe this topic demands more attention from most working professionals. I am eager to take this knowledge and my inclusive mindset to support your organizations' diversity efforts."
