Speaker: Megan Ames

Megan is an innovative leader in technology and management consulting, as a Senior Consultant at Slalom. Through her career in technology space, she has a passion for cultivating and building a pathway for upcoming Hispanic women in the technology field. She was invited to participate in an executive program at SMU focused on recognizing and building Latino leaders here in the DFW area. Her drive for making a more diverse community in the technology space is fueled by her additional active leadership roles across several organizations, such as; a newly inducted board member to the Dallas Arboretum, chair of the Hispanic Heritage Celebration at the Dallas Arboretum, membership chair for the Texas A&M Hispanic Network, co-lead for Unidos Slalom, gala committee for the Hispanic Women's Network of Texas and a pace leader for the Dallas Running Club. Her passion for running stems from a bond with her father from a young age. She has completed eight half marathons, 2 marathons, and continues to help her dad train for his 100 mile race. Outside of her community involvement, Megan enjoys traveling and making sweet memories with her husband and daughter.
