The Essex/Middlesex Chapter of MAIA was awarded “Chalter of the Year” in 2021 due to the extremely popular “Dynamic Women Spotlight Speaker Series.” We had several influential woman speakers presenting a variety of items such as Women in Business, Entrepreneurial, Women helping women, Business acumen on zoom calls, and more all while in the middle of a pandemic! One of our guests was Rochelle Joseph – renowned stylist for the stars! This virtual series was a great opportunity to bring us all together even while we were all stuck at home!

We were also lucky to have our Co-Director, Laura Henderson, awarded as “Member of the Year” -Congratulations! Her tireless efforts in collaboration, self-development, and sincere interest in helping others achieve success continues to make an impression on all who know Laura! She has been instrumental in helping our chapter continue to grow, increase educational opportunities, and increase the amount of scholarships and community organizations that we have been able to help.
