What the nominator said: “Michelle Wall is a centerpiece to her community and has significantly impacted the lives of many Delaware residents at the local, regional and state levels in just the two years I’ve known her. From co-chairing the Greater Delaware Valley Chapter of the MS Society’s MSquerade Ball, helping to raise more than $250,000 for the organization, to raising another $2,000 annually with her walking team, These Four Walls, she is making a difference across Delaware.”

Your biggest break: Leadership Delaware provided me with a comprehensive look at the state of Delaware and an opportunity to establish myself professionally after spending several years as a stay-at-home mom.

Two words that best describe you: Dedicated and trustworthy.

Work /life balance technique you recommend: Be selective of what you say “yes” to being involved in; make sure your “yes” is a true reflection of your actual commitment.

If you were in charge of Delaware: I would like citizens who are registered as unaffiliated voters to be able to vote in primary elections in Delaware.

In one sentence, define “success.” I define success as the ability to reflect on a situation and be confident that I gave 100 percent effort, regardless of the outcome.
