The Annual Converse Women’s Leadership Speaker Series will be held on Friday, March 7, 2025 at 11 AM in the Barnet Room.
Kelli Valade, CEO of Denny’s Inc., is our keynote speaker and she has a fascinating path of leadership, family, and connections to South Carolina that she will share.
Our Alumni Speaker is the Honorable Joy Stoney-Reid ’00. Joy graduated from Converse in 2000, and as an attorney, magistrate judge, and working mom of two very young daughters, she will discuss her career and life journey.
This event is open to all students, faculty, staff, alumni, and dear community friends! The speakers will share, we’ll have a short Q&A session with the audience, and then we will all enjoy a catered, elevated brunch reception!
