Mariah Stackhouse Featured on ESPN.com

Mariah Stackhouse, a BJL Board of Advisor, was featured on ESPN.com! Stackhouse, who is a KPMG brand ambassador, talked to espnW about shifting her golf goals during the pandemic and making an impact on and off the course.

We want everybody to see themselves in these spaces and know that they can climb the ranks there and excel and they can have a career. That's what I see these past few months bringing to light and what that has the potential to mean.
