Over the past year, WTS-Boston supported six women through two different programs aimed at providing a platform for continuous development in the transportation industry. New and experienced professionals have the opportunity to enhance leadership skills, expand knowledge of the industry, and build a network of professional connections.

As I complete my two-year term as WTS-Boston president, I have an enormous amount of pride and appreciation for all that we accomplished together. Thanks to each volunteer, sponsor, and member for everything you do to support the mission of WTS to attract, sustain, connect, and advance women’s careers to strengthen the transportation industry. My goals at the start of my presidency were to enhance member and sponsor engagement, leadership development, and access to low-cost programming that advances women and advances transportation. The link below highlights our actions and impacts over the past two years. I wish you all peace and joy this holiday season. May you have the opportunity to recharge and renew for the year ahead.
