An Evening with Great Women 2016 | Page 3

A few words from

the founders

Welcome to Plaid’s 3rd Annual “An Evening With Great Women.” This year’s theme is #BeHeard.

At Plaid, we are women who want to be heard just like you! We live day in and day out on information overload. That’s why we have created an environment that removes the noise and gives you a platform to say what you want to say. Share what you are passionate about. We are listening! We chose the name Plaid because we are all individual strands, and when woven together we become connected and our message stands out!

Tonight we are honored to feature three

award-winning journalists from the DFW Metroplex – Krys Boyd, Host/ Managing Editor of the popular NPR Radio Show Think - KERA 90.1; Shannon Powell Hart Producer/Reporter/Web EditorChannel 8 WFAA.com and Marisa Trevino, Publisher Latina Lista & CoFounder Treviño TodaMedia. These ladies will share their journeys of how they found their voice personally and professionally.

The last three years have proven that our mission of providing inclusive communities

and transformational

connections for women

has created a sisterhood

who truly want to get

connected, be heard,

and support one another.

We are so happy to have

you here this evening!

– Shivaun & Sarah
