**Embracing My "Second Act"** This whirlwind has been a testament to the power of forging new partnerships and navigating spaces where I was destined to be. The future is bright, and I'm excited to continue this journey of growth and impact. After 23+ years of dedicated service in City Government, empowering youth and making a tangible difference, I embarked on an incredible new journey. Teaming up with Vontelle Eyewear has opened up a world of opportunities for growth, networking, and empowerment. Over the last three months, I've had the privilege to: - Attend RaiseFashion where I was privilege of meeting the founder Felita Harris spearheading opportunities and promoting the responsibility of the workers in the fashion world to cultivate a more diverse industry, one that actively promotes and fosters BIPOC-owned businesses and BIPOC individuals. -Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) in D.C., where I met some of the most influential Black leaders, vendors and everyday supporters -visited the White House. - Attended the Amazon’s Black Employee GALA ⁃ Invited to the Women Empowerment Brunch ⁃ In the room with President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for their speeches at the CBC culminating night -Invited to the Springboard Enterprises 16th Annual Awards Gala, at the NASDAQ Marketsite an evening dedicated to celebrating the incredible women entrepreneurs and the bountiful Springboard community! Shout out to the Amazon Black Business Accelerator team, Danyel & Shayna for having Vontélle at the table. Outside of my commitment to Vontélle I also enjoyed; - Celebrating at the 25th Anniversary Gala introducing Wells Fargo at the WISE Annual Gala, where I had a heartwarming reunion with P. V. Ananthram’s (previous and most powerful OMB Director) via his wife Kamala Ananthram, CPA and Managing Director Global Head of Internal Audit at Lazard, who was there presenting the Wells Fargo Award, a powerhouse in her own right! - Attended the Event Planner Expo and the Wolf & Badger private vendor meet and greet where we did extensive networking and forged exciting partnerships. - Attended the Educational Arts 50th Anniversary Gala alongside my cousin Anneicia Richards V.P. of Total rewards representing her company Fortitude for their continued sponsorship of arts programming. What an amazing night! I’m here for it All! Stay tuned!
