Board and Management Council Retreat

I’ve been a volunteer with the New York Junior League for almost ten years. Today I start my new role as the Affiliation Council Head, in charge of two committees, Greeting and Outreach, and Membership Engagement.

Had to get headshot ready!

The afternoon was filled with thoughtful brainstorms, meaningful discussions, and overall good people. I’m excited about the upcoming league year!

PAL’s Career Day

On May 20th, the New York Junior League’s Personal Advancement and Leadership committee hosted a Career Day at the Astor House. The event brought together approximately 80 middle and high school girls from three community partners, Union Settlement, SCAN-Harbor, and Rising Ground.

The girls got to hear about different career paths and professional skills. We had over 20 speakers! There was a panel about entrepreneurship, women in tech, criminal justice, LinkedIn, social media, corporate America, and community advocacy and public policy.

It was an inspiring day! Here are some pictures of the event.
