    Social responsibility is in my DNA. I've been a member of AWNY for 13 years and for the past 3 years I've been on the board.

    Our mission at AWNY is to help women in advertising and communications achieve both personal and professional success at all stages of their careers through thought-leadership, mentoring, professional development and industry recognition.

    It gives me great pleasure to be able to work with up and coming talent in our industry as it's so important to give a voice to the dynamics that women bring to business.

    In my role at AWNY, I have worked on defining the benefits of membership at various levels – young exec, mid exec and most recently the launch of the Executive Class membership level.

    In addition to board meetings, I participate in annual strategy sessions. During one of these sessions I developed the "C-suite Meet"​ - an intimate Q&A style gathering where the audience gets up close and personal with a C-level member of our industry.

    Along with some of my fellow board members, I am also working on AWNY's communications architecture and corresponding year-long communications plan.
