Shari Bailey is not only a seasoned professional in Quality Assurance & Regulatory Compliance with over 23 years of experience but also a devoted mother and advocate for children with special needs. With certifications in Six Sigma, PMP, and Quality Auditing, Shari has made significant contributions to the Pharmaceutical, Medical Device, Biotechnology, and Software industries. Beyond her corporate achievements, she is the founder of Laila’s Gift, a nonprofit inspired by her daughter Laila, born with Jacobsen Syndrome. Shari’s advocacy work through Laila’s Gift reflects her commitment to supporting and celebrating children with special needs and their families, promoting inclusion and diversity in the community.
Lana, Shari’s daughter,
is a creative spirit who discovered the joy of storytelling and doodling during
the Covid-19 pandemic. Lana not only found a way to entertain herself but also
connected with her twin sister, Laila, through her creations. This creative
connection led to the inception of Zigglebee, a character symbolizing “one cool
bee” in Lana’s language. Lana’s imaginative endeavors, inspired by her
relationship with Laila, have become a beacon of engagement, creativity, and
inclusion, embodying the spirit of Laila’s Gift.
Together, Shari and
Lana represent a dynamic duo advocating for inclusion, creativity, and support
for families with special needs children, sharing their inspiring journey and
the transformative power of love and creativity.
