She has worked with many business committees and affinity groups to move the needle forward on attracting, recruiting, retaining and developing top talent. Thach has a long history and passion in advocating for justice, equity and inclusion. Thach spent the early years of her career expanding access to colleges, financial aid, and legal services within low-income communities. She received her undergraduate degree at UCLA in sociology and philosophy and completed an intensive Critical Race Theory & Intersectionality program sponsored by the African American Policy Forum, in partnership with Columbia Law School and UCLA School of Law.
