Thank you, Justworks."

"The Caldwells have such a unique story," says Jay Davis, member of the JustWorks Black Leadership Alliance resource group. "Their successes as married cofounders in the tech space provide us with inspiration for not only professional achievements, but a picture of what love and family look like; they remind us that we don't have to choose one before we get the other, but we earn both, simultaneously!"
