wait along the sideline for someone else to notice how incredible
they are. That is why we could not think of a better keynote

world to find their voice. To combine her incredible story with our
annual Inspirational Influencer awards will make for an
unforgettable evening,” said Megan Bozzuto, President of IAW. “We

world; helping them achieve their goals and celebrating their
achievements.”
