2023 Women’s Development Day Attendee

“It was incredible - I'm glad I had the chance to meet so many women in the industry.”

2023 AFPM Happy Hour Attendee

“I really enjoyed my time. It was incredibly refreshing to talk to female leaders who were open to advice, guidance, and did not automatically think they knew the answer or could do it themselves. Everyone was so receptive and open.”
