GLFD BOARD MEMBER JASMIN BRAND HONORED WITH ATHENA AWARD
Last Quarter 2011
Jasmin Brand received the Dallas Regional Chamber's inaugural presentation of the Young Professional Leadership ATHENA Award, which is underwritten nationally by KMPG, and recognizes recipients as up-and-coming professional leaders who inspire, support and honor the women of the Dallas community. Young ATHENA is an extension of the original ATHENA, which has honored some 6,000 women leaders worldwide.
Jasmin was nominated by UNT Dallas where since February of this year, she has been working on a long term consulting project. (UNT Dallas is the city's first and only public university). Her primary focus has been to assist in building the infrastructure of the newly formed Office of University Advancement as well as developing programs responsible for building both campus and community engagement and excitement.
In response to this wonderful news, Jasmin exclaimed, "I was both shocked and extremely thankful to receive such a prestigious award. It reaffirmed my belief in the importance of continuously giving back to others." Congratulations Jasmin!
