Joseph is dedicated to making connections that matter. She’s landed millions of dollars in broadband subsidy grants that will help expand Charter’s broadband to previously unserved and underserved parts of the Northeastern region she assists. In September, she expects to complete an expansion project bringing broadband to 145,000 new homes and small businesses in upstate New York. Among her many other duties, Joseph collaborated with ColorComm Inc. on a strategic virtual partnership and co-moderated a fireside chat in which New York Attorney General Letitia James shared her story as the first woman of color to hold statewide office in New York. Joseph says leading by example is the best way to spark open communication. “By sharing honest feedback and being receptive to the same, it encourages other leaders and peers and bolsters an effective yet authentic work environment.”
