Latoya: It taught me discipline

Honesty—it's one of the many reasons we love Latoya, a dedicated gate line stewardess with Carlisle Support Services. Latoya, who uses Wagestream through her employer, is a regular participant in our co-creation workshops. She’s quick to share her insights, telling us openly what she loves (and what she doesn’t) about the app and giving valuable feedback on how we can further support her financial wellbeing.
