We’ve been married for over 3 years, and our completely different cultural backgrounds have opened our eyes to the beauty and effectiveness of diversity. We work in harmony, thanks to our daily practice in 1) acknowledgement of the different sets of values that we were raised in, 2) putting ourselves in the other person’s shoes to understand, 3) valuing the other person’s point of view and natural tendencies, and 4) commitment to be unified even through the differences. All that to say, we actually enjoy and love working together because each of us brings unique talent that is needed on the team. You can trust us.
