I have the distinct privilege to close out Women's History Month with a bang! I am completely delighted and honored to share! I am being inducted into the Enterprising Women Hall of Fame. The celebration is occurring this week during the 23rd Annual Enterprising Women of the Year Awards Celebration and Conference held in Nashville, TN. I am also grateful and humbled to be featured on the cover of the Enterprising Women Magazine commemorative issue celebrating 25 years of the organization. https://lnkd.in/gSC52Xsw It is my hope that my story encourages you to tap into every good gift that is built inside of you. I hope it is a reminder to find alignment in purpose on purpose. In order to truly be a proponent of the good we want to see and experience in the world, we must be willing to challenge the status quo with authenticity, conviction, integrity, and profound work ethic. We must see the value of others in our future. We must champion pathways of access and opportunity for ourselves and others. We must intentionally choose to broaden our lens of understanding beyond simply what is familiar and comfortable. A special thank you to Monica Smiley, Victoria Woods, Donna Miller, MBA, SHRM-SCP, Annette White-Klososky, Robin Roberson and Ginger Sloan for SEEING other women and using their networks, platforms and access to champion and celebrate WOMEN. #ToGodBeTheGlory #WeAreBetterTogether #BiggerThanOurselves #UtopiaModel #EnterprisingWomen #Founder #Inventor #UtopiaPlastix #WomensHistoryMonth

Innovation Happens In The Heartland! A profound "Thank You" to the OKC Innovation District for selecting me to be the recipient of the inaugural "Innovation Impact Award" presented at the Annual Breakfast. The room was filled with those who actively work to advance the innovation eco-system across the OKC metro area. I am especially proud to be among the community of leaders that champion making sure students and adults who live on the northeast side of OKC have access to STEAM and Workforce Development opportunities. We were also delighted to be a sponsor in collaboration with OKC based PolyFilms and Bags, Inc., who manufactured the "swag bags" made with Utopia Plastix®. (Don"t throw it away. Reuse it or...put it in your garden as a liner) If you were in the room, you were also one of the FIRST 250 people to receive a water bottle made with Utopia Plastix® manufactured by Simple Modern. Talk about a front row seat to innovation. Now that's swag cool! What a way to start a Friday!

Thank you to The Oklahoman for highlighting the work we are doing with Utopia Plastix®. Also a special Thank You to our friends at Simple Modern for joining us in championing our efforts toward a more sustainable future. Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/gKRmcrwy
