Ashleigh Griffith is Sustainability Brand Manager for KFC Global and one thing passed down from her family is a love of learning…

"In my family, we've passed down a curiosity for learning and personal development. ‘Knowledge is power' is one statement that every member of my family is guaranteed to have been told at some point and one which has become integral to our belief system.
