Meet Ronnie Robinett, a Regional Sales Director, former Inclusion Equity & Diversity Program Manager and MOSAiC Employee Resource Group’s founding member and leader at Nevro. Inspired by the words of Dr. Martin Luther King’s ‘I Have a Dream’ speech, Ronnie was destined to make a life that his family would be proud of AND he knew that education was the key. “I pay tribute to my grandparents during Black History Month because of their perseverance and sacrifices that gave me the opportunities to live their wildest dreams. It pleases my grandparents to see my siblings and me get the education that they were not afforded and have successful careers. I owe them so much and have a responsibility to create a path for others to follow behind me.”
