I was honored to serve as Moderator for two panel discussions at the Fordham University Women's Philanthropy Summit on October 24, 2018.
The all-day summit drew about 250 alumnae, students, faculty, and friends to Fordham Law School for a series of keynote speeches, forums, pep talks, networking breaks, and even a five-minute yoga session.
The panel discussions, "View From the Top," included conversation with notable Fordham alumnae, who shared their career experiences, their love of Fordham and their interest in giving back to the community.
