Pictured: The first one is her honeymoon almost four years ago in Bora Bora. The second one is a flash forward three years later—last year on their “babymoon” in St. John when she was seven months pregnant.

Significant Other Gig: 2015 CREW Austin president

Goals for CREW: She’s passionate about CREW Austin providing leadership, personal and professional development opportunities for its members. On her agenda: growing membership, quality programs and finding ways to give back to the members. This year, she has borrowed an idea from other CREW chapters and with the board’s approval will launch a wine raffle called The Grape Rewards of CREW.

The goal is to award up to 10 scholarships. She’s got tickets on sale on the crewaustin.com website and promises odds are 1 in 100.
