Of course! I want to thank all the women volunteering at Led by Community: Imogen, Nicola, Ismot, Denisse, Dhanashree, Katharine, Merlinda, Knarik, Amarachi, Piper, Ruthie, and Aleksandra. (Twelve of the 14 are women!)

Let’s get started with the Stories:

We would love to feature all women and their fantastic contributions to this industry, so if you are up to taking 5 minutes to share yours, we will feature it in our weekly newsletter. Please share your story with us here!
