Where We Recharge | May 28, 2026

Dr. Peggy Hsieh and her family pose for a photo in front of the ocean.

Peggy Hsieh MEd, PhD, recharges by being with my family. Going through photos and recounting memories is one way they do that. What matters most is being together.

The first edition of the McGovern Recharge photo gallery highlights the many ways our community resets and recharges outside of work. From hiking and camping to celebrating with family, gardening, and reflecting on special memories, each photo captures a meaningful moment of joy, connection, and renewal.
