The Dwight School Foundation, in partnership with our Alumni Women's Circle and Dwight's student Feminist Club, recently hosted a panel discussion with female industry leaders from our parent and alumni community.
Natalie Fear ’24 and Moira Price, Foundation Director, moderated this discussion with panelists Colleen Barry ’99, Stephanie Nilva, Esq. ’84, Dr. Reyna Payero, and Laura H. Posner, who have exceptional expertise in the arts, healthcare, law, and not-for-profit industries. During the panel, our guests shared great insights into their personal and professional lives, emphasized the importance of finding mentors and mentees, discussed strategies for navigating gender-related obstacles, and more! A mighty, mighty thank you to our incredible panelists and to the Dwight School Foundation and Feminist Club for putting together this enriching experience for our community.
Natalie '24, the student moderator and co-president of the Feminist Club, wrote a nice thank you note that sums up the impact the event had on attendees:
"Thank you again for the amazing opportunity to speak with you and learn about your incredible accomplishments. I am grateful to be surrounded and encouraged by such powerful women. I think I speak for all young women at Dwight when I say your stories and experiences give us hope."
