Early Bird Breakfast, August 2015
Join us for our Annual Eggs & Issues Breakfast on August 11, 2015, featuring Representative Stacey Y. Abrams, House Minority Leader for the Georgia General Assembly. She is the first woman to lead either party in the Georgia General Assembly and is the first African-American to lead in the House of Representatives. In addition to her public service, Representative Abrams co-founded and serves as Senior Vice President of NOWaccount Network Corporation, a financial services firm. She also co-founded Nourish, Inc., a beverage company with a focus on infants and toddlers, as well as other entrepreneurial ventures. Formerly, she was Deputy City Attorney for the City of Atlanta. Prior to her tenure at the City, she was Special Tax Counsel at Sutherland.
Representative Abrams received the prestigious 2012 John F. Kennedy New Frontier Award which honors an elected official under 40 whose work demonstrates the impact of elective public service as a way to address public challenges. Stacy has been recognized nationally as one of "12 Rising Legislators to Watch" by Governing magazine and one of the "100 Most Influential Georgians" by Georgia Trend for 2012 and 2013.
Representative Abrams received her J.D. from Yale Law School. She graduated from the LBJ School of Public Affairs at the University of Texas at Austin with MPA in public policy and a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies from Spelman College.
