At Herd Strategies, we believe it is imperative for information to be equitable and accessible to all. Throughout the month of September, we will be using our platforms to discuss how #InfoIsPower by highlighting community leaders who use their voices to teach and empower others. This week’s feature is Faith Sherrill, a Black athlete and educator who acts upon the opportunity to impact the next generation through representation.

Women are taught to be caregivers and to pour into others so much that we often lose ourselves, our passions, and our interests. I've found that when wearing all the hats we wear, we can easily fall into not caring about ourselves or our dreams. This ignited my mission to create space for women to dig in and do the hard work needed to achieve their personal goals.

This week, we are highlighting an influencer who is #BuildingBuzz by creating businesses that solve social issues. A powerful force in the venture capital market, Kelli N. Jones uses her clear communication skills to help find and fill the needs of her community.
