In 2018, as the only female 2018 Candidate for Lewisville Mayor and a 2017 past candidate for City Council Place One, I ran for City Council Seat Place 3 in 2021. I understand that when female business leaders and senior executives become committed to advocating for investment options and actions that increase economic security and leadership for women and girls ~ we all grow.When leadership grows from within our own community and all are recognized not only a few, then women and girls achieve economic stability and rise to positions of leadership in our community, become part of our economy and end up leaders in our country ~ we all truly thrive. You see, there is a growing number of women and girls who live in poverty but refuse to be silent, they just need to be seen. Having a platform helps them get the word out, as they know all too well what it means for so many, a stable income stems from an education or vocational training, and as a woman, I am committed to helping women and girls gain access to these fundamental resources. As a past city council candidate for the Lewisville community, I support greater access to affordable, high-quality childcare so mothers can provide for their families while their children are safe and nurtured. Community Leadership should advocate for women and girls, so that one day; they too will drive positive change in the corporate office and the community of businesswomen.Founder of Women Business AnalystPenny has over 20 years of progressive accomplishments in the Insurance Industry.
