Fuller is responsible for connecting communities in Jacksonville with the resources available at JPMorgan Chase. She provides financial health education with the goal of encouraging higher levels of access to banking and related services. By combining her personal and professional experience, Fuller's purpose is to build trust, educate and drive sustainable change within the community. During her presentation, Fuller does not promote Chase products.

"We're grateful to work in tandem with our financial partners JPMorgan Chase and Fifth Third Bank as part of the Money & You series," said Megan Rose, CEO of Better Together. "Navigating parenthood can be difficult, not to mention the additional challenges that come with managing a family budget. Thanks to our collaboration with our financial partners, we can provide Better Together families with the resources they need to help them thrive."
