I was very excited to support my son’s alma mater by creating custom silver locket necklaces inscribed with “2023 Women of St. John’s University” that celebrated the dynamic Women of St. John’s.  I am very proud to continue my relationship and working with such a wonderful association and renowned university.

Basically, the goal of the event was to celebrate women's history month especially the women of St Johns's.The McCallen Society hosted the luncheon. Many of its members broke the glass ceiling for the women of St John's who followed. It was a women empowerment luncheon where St John's showcased some of our dynamic women. The remarks were impactful and inspirational. For the young women who attended, I hope they were proud to be a Johnnie and were encouraged by who they met and what they heard at this luncheon. 

It was a social gathering, but a lot of networking was taking place too. 

It was a proud day to be a woman of St John’s.
