Posted on Apr. 1, 2026 / Event Recap / Subscribe 0
In celebration of Women’s History Month, SMPS-NY hosted an unforgettable evening for Connect & Lead: Women in Marketing & Business Development. It wasn’t just a sold-out event—it was a masterclass in navigating the industry with grit and grace 💼💫
Moderated by our wonderful Director of Diversity & Inclusion, Maria Alarcon, the panel featured five powerhouse voices: Ivoire Lloyd (EXP), Alycia Timms (Gensler), Natalie Molina (Turner & Townsend), Catherine Morgan (Dewberry), and Dr. Kia Sutton (Infrastructure Engineering Inc.). Rather than just listing milestones, these leaders shared incredible industry nuggets and opened up about their struggles and the pivotal moments that shaped their careers 🌟
They shared a universal truth: while technical skill matters, it is the community that truly moves us forward 🤝 The evening reminded us that behind every “powerhouse” professional is a story of persistence—and a network that helped them rise. We walked away inspired, connected, and ready to apply those pearls of wisdom to our own professional breakthroughs 🚀
A special thank you to our host, Dewberry! 🙌
We hope to see everyone at our next event—stay tuned for more opportunities to connect, learn, and lead together! 💙
