Her resume was posted online and it's laughable. I'm pretty sure JPMorgan just hired her to check a box to ensure they kept their social justice ratings.
Of course they did. All of F500 did this out of peer pressure, left wing shareholder demand, and run amok HR departments.
It's been refreshing to watch the partial retreat of this movement in corporate America. My old company consolidated their DEI VP into some other role and then ultimately it just died on the vine. The last person that was in it apparently left and went back to a real job. Those roles literally do nothing and produce nothing.
A few years ago, I worked for this company that had a VP for DEI. He was a regular gay guy who organized meetings during work hours where other gay guys shared their experiences. The rest of the company was invited, and it was an unwritten rule that we all had to join to show support.
One of my bosses 2 levels up was also a gay dude (I hadn't known that) and he talked about his experiences as well. There would be 100s of people on these calls, all on company time, held hostage instead of working. Led by a highly paid DEI VP. Eventually the company unraveled and had layoffs with stock price sinking. The DEI VP eventually got laid off in late 2024 right after Trump got elected by before he took office. He is still without a corporate job as there are no takers for DEI pimps anymore. He writes books now and teaches courses though I don't know if anyone joins.
