Women Leading KY has been a tremendous blessing in my life as it has allowed me a chance to meet and network with other powerful ladies. I can say that I get excited every time there is a new event as I will have a chance to meet some other movers and shakers in the industry. I have worked with the committee on identifying scholarship recipients and have invited other ladies to come to WLK events. Thank you to WLK for the sessions on Leadership as it has allowed me a chance to interview for leadership roles and I landed my dream job!
