WALTER gathered a dynamic group of women on February 23 to talk about work at WINi 2020. It was an inspiring afternoon, a chance for young women to hear about the tenacity and self-discovery that go into building a career.

This year’s panelists were GOLeafe CEO Arsheen Allam, visual artist Maya Freelon, A Place at the Table founder Maggie Kane and ABC11 anchor Amber Rupinta. With their range of fields and diversity of experiences, they drew guests into their stories with wisdom for all.

Thank you to the organizations that made WINi possible: presenting sponsor and partner Bank of America; workshop sponsors Riley Lewis General Contractors and Wegmans; Leigh Shamblin from N.C. State University; table sponsors York Properties, HQ Raleigh + Leadership Exchange, Duke Fuqua School of Business, The Women’s Giving Network of Wake County and Virginia Parker; Market Hall; Greenfront Interiors + Rugs; and event partners Attended Events, Bloom Works, Alphagraphics and Westgate Wine.
