K.Hernandez48 min ago

The WiSH Education Foundation is inviting young women to a conference later this month in Saugus to discuss next steps for their futures.

The WiSH Education Foundation in collaboration with ASCEND and Soroptimist International of Valencia are inviting junior high and high schoolers to a conference at Saugus High School to help guide them in their next steps of life.

"This event began years ago as WiSH &Women in Business, created to inspire confidence and drive in both young girls and boys. We are excited to collaborate with another great SCV nonprofit, Soroptimist International of Valencia, as we have overlapping goals with their Dream it, Be it; program. There are great stressors in our young students' worlds today and having the tools to stay motivated, to understand that failure is an important tool for learning and growth, and that self-care must take priority is an important message that we need to share with these wonderful young people. We are thrilled to present such outstanding, successful women in a wide variety of fields who can share their pathway to success and what it took to get there," said Amy Daniels, WiSH Executive Director.

The event is set to take place on Saturday, Oct. 26 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Saugus High School Performing Arts Center and registration is free and online through Thursday, Oct. 24, at 7 p.m.

The list of presenters includes: Samantha Morrow, Marketing Director of Hello Auto Group, Karema Chantasirivisal, Process Development Manager, Boston Scientific; Duressa Powers, Personal Trainer/Owner, Hardcore Fitness, Burbank; Mariam Nasiry, Senior School Community Development Officer, California Credit Union; Nadine Young, Nutritionist; and Keynote Speaker Jessica Campbell, Owner of PO3 Agency.

There is set to be a light breakfast and snacks served at the event, according to officials.
