When Queen Creek resident and entrepreneur Theresa Weinberg attended the Taking the Leap workshop at the Queen Creek Library last February the passion for innovation was infectious.
But one presenter, Erica Ballesteros, stuck with Ms. Weinberg as she outlined her ideas on how to empower local youth through strengths-based soft skill and workforce development.
“Taking The Leap brought together local entrepreneurs and leaders,” she said. “The passion they expressed of innovative ideas was felt throughout the room. At the completion of the workshop, I had the opportunity to meet and chat with one of the speakers, Erica Ballesteros.”
