STAR 100 MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: NOVISI ATADIKA

"My passion is using my investment skills toward the greater good."

MEMBER SINCE: 2008

WHY SHE'S A STAR: After a demanding day at work, many of us can't get up the energy to cook, let alone train for a marathon--but that's exactly what Novisi Atadika has been doing for the last four months, preparing to run 26 miles to raise funds for cancer research. An investment manager by trade, Novisi managed assets at an investment group for nearly four years before deciding to transition to the non-profit sector. "I need to be part of something that's making society better," she explains.

Now part of the investment team at a preeminent cancer research hospital, Atadika finds satisfaction in using her expertise to serve a cause that is meaningful to her. "I was born in Ghana, and now that I'm living in a more prosperous developed country, there's a drive from that background to do something."

Novisi will run the marathon this Sunday November 6th. Help her raise funds for critical cancer research -- DONATE HERE.
