"GALAXe Pride at Work, the Xerox employee resource group for LGBT employees, was the final clincher for choosing to work for Xerox nine years ago. Being authentic at work as a lesbian was critical to me. It assured that my energies were focused on producing the best results while at the same time my partner and I were embraced as members of the Xerox family. Today, as Co-President of GALAXe, I work alongside the Xerox Diversity Office to recruit, hire and retain LGBT employees."
