This year’s cohort celebrates women leading with purpose, making bold moves and shaping our city.
What makes a Woman to Watch? Simply put, it’s a woman with concrete, actionable plans for the coming year that benefits our community at large. These aren’t women who are looking for public accolades or congratulations. They toil quietly behind the scenes, embodying grit, determination and optimism — and relentlessly push for change.
