"I know that HarperCollins established over 30 years ago and you have been a part of many exciting mergers and acquisitions since then. There are growth opportunities available here, and you put a lot of energy into creating a corporate culture that gives back. For instance, I recently read that HarperCollins actively supports local and national organizations to foster a universal passion for reading. Whether it's through supporting literacy-based organizations, providing volunteers, donating books, or creating unique collaborations that benefit readers, you find ways to partner hand-in-hand with communities."
