Heather, a personal and professional role model

I knew Heather growing up through our families and my friendship with her sister Shawn through high school and college.  It wasn't until the summer of 2000 that I actually had the opportunity to get to know Heather better when she helped me secure an internship position with BGI in San Francisco.  The role exposed me to many things, the highlight being the chance to watch Heather in action!  She was a professional with astute business sense and incredible talent.  I am thankful for the lunches we shared, the professional and personal life advice she was so willing to impart that summer.  May Grace and Cooper know what a wonderful, dynamic and FUN person Heather was and the lasting impression she made on everyone she met.
