About this year's wonderful President's Reception - it sparkled! The stars came out and the work of the EconAlliance team paid off! Here's what one guest said:

"Dear Nash, Alejandra, Terri Lee, and Lydia,
I left last night's reception with an appreciation of our community and a sense of optimism for the work we do. It was a wonderful networking event full of camaraderie and a sense of purpose. You all did a wonderful job making sure attendees made connections and that the conversation centered around “what’s next.” It’s the first networking event I’ve attended that felt purposeful and intentional. A heartfelt great job and thank you! Now it’s left to us, the community members, to carry out the work required to help the community remain sustainable and looking forward. And we will!
Thank you again for a wonderful event. I truly had a great time. 🙂"
Cecilia Mortela | Chief Partnership Officer
Laurus College

Thank you, Cecilia, from the bottom of our hearts!
