Mrs. Eli Hinson, an associate at Booz Allen Hamilton, firmly believes, “having a disability doesn’t mean you can’t reach for the stars.” Mrs. Hinson was diagnosed with dyslexia as she entered her sophomore year at Old Dominion University. After graduating from ODU, Mrs. Hinson joined the United States Marine Corp, becoming a field wireman – Communications Specialist.
In 2000, Mrs. Hinson joined Booz Allen, where she supports the Enterprise Solutions Group as the Security Services SharePoint Administrator.
