The Mother's Day Soirée is the<br />

only event in Houston that honors<br />

mothers from diverse backgrounds<br />

and occupations, who also give<br />

back to our community. It was<br />

my honor to be nominated five<br />

years ago and walk the runway<br />

with my then 2-year old daughter.<br />

The Soirée continues to grow<br />

every year, and I believe it is a<br />

reflection of the need for events<br />

that highlight and honor Houston’s<br />

great diversity. A woman's<br />

accomplishments can often times<br />

be overlooked, but this event<br />

strives to recognize and celebrate<br />

the wonderful mothers in our<br />

community who truly "do it all."<br />

<strong>2019</strong> Soirée Co-Chair<br />

I’m honored to have been a part of the International Mothers<br />

Day Soirée since its beginning. I have seen so many wonderful,<br />

deserving mothers recognized for their contributions to Houston<br />

and beyond, and I’ve made invaluable friendships along the way.<br />

Every year I’m amazed at the accomplishments of the Honorees,<br />

not just as professionals, but as mothers. They truly make me<br />

proud to be a part of the Soirée and to be a woman in Houston.<br />
