Each year the World Economic Forum selects Young Global Leaders (YGLs)–the most enterprising, innovative, socially minded, and exceptional leaders under the age of 40. Meet the Class of 2016 which includes scientists, politicians, entrepreneurs, artists and many more. This year’s class of 121 YGLs is split evenly between business and not-for-profit sectors. I’m proud to be YGL Class of 2009. On Thursday, March 17, 2016, we welcomed the new NY-based YGLs at an intimate gathering.

Wellesley NY Club 125th Anniversary
On Saturday, November 14th, 2015, I attended the 125th Anniversary event for the New York Wellesley Club (NYWC). The NYWC’s first meeting took place on December 13, 1890, just eleven years after Wellesley College graduated its first class of eighteen women. Today, the Club serves 2,700 alumnae in the city’s five boroughs. NYC’s First Lady, Charlene McCray ’76 kicked off the day with NYWC President Brooke Bryant ’03.
