This Is ME, Inc.

LEADERSHIP

This Is ME has three levels of leadership: the Board of Directors, the Executive Committee, and the Girls Council.

Board of Directors

The This Is ME Board has been instrumental in raising funds and attracting supporters to our mission. They also fulfill all other traditional board duties, from approving the budget to advising staff.

Meg Renehan President	Megan Renehan is currently on staff with the American Osteopathic Association as a Marketing & Communications Specialist and the Executive Director of the South Carolina Osteopathic Medical Society. She is pursuing her MFA at Bennington College, and she holds a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Sociology from the University of Illinois at Chicago. In August of 2008, Megan joined This Is ME because she loves the idea of creating better communities by helping young women realize their full potential. In addition to her role on the Board of Directors, Meg chairs the Marketing Committee and is a member of the Development Committee.
Katie Vannucci Secretary	Katie Vannucci is currently an associate attorney at the Law Office of Robert D. Ahglren and Associates in Chicago, IL where she practices immigration law. Katie received her law degree from Loyola University Chicago School of Law and her Bachelor's Degree in Political Science and Spanish at Loyola University Maryland. Katie was inspired to get involved with TIME in the Fall 2009 when her co-worker, Leah Duckett, told her about all the great work this organization did to inspire and encourage young girls. Leah was a former board member. Katie knew that she could use her talents and time to help out this great organization. In addition to her role on the Board of Directors, Katie is a member of the Marketing Committee.
Kate Hickey Treasurer	Kate Hickey recently graduated from DePaul University with a Master's degree in education. She holds a Bachelor's degree in Sociology from Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine. Kate's involvement with This Is ME, Inc. stems from her passion for enriching the lives of young women. By creating more opportunities for girls to reach their personal goals, she hopes to help them achieve a future they may never have thought possible. In addition to her role on the Board of Directors, Kate is currently the chair of the Development Committee. Outside of This Is ME, you will most likely find Kate running on the lake front, exploring new restaurants or spending time with friends and family.
Amy Riley Director	Amy Riley is the Founder of 2 businesses: Shoop Consulting Group, Inc., a business dedicated to developing people personally and professionally through customized training and coaching, and Loving the Pregnant You, a business that provides pregnancy coaching and other services to help expectant moms discover and make the choices that uniquely work best for them. Amy is passionate about people – especially women – leveraging their strengths and feeling at choice in all areas of life. She is also a Tiara Program Coach, the VP of Corporate Development for Optimal Level, and a Training Systems Associate. Amy was inspired to join the This Is ME Board of Directors in 2009 because she believes the concepts of owning our strengths and knowing that we can create whatever we want in our lives can begin in our adolescence. She is delighted to be a part of an organization that makes such a profound difference to local girls.
