The WISE Women’s Business Center recently announced two new hires.
LATOYA COLLINS is the program coordinator of COVID-19 for the WISE Women’s Business Center. She has a strong background in business leadership, service, education, and entrepreneurship. Collins received the Finger Lakes Community College Distinguished Service award and is energized by building client relationships and providing efficient and memorable assistance to others. She plans to obtain her Lean Six Sigma certifications as well as potentially obtaining a Ph.D. in entrepreneurship.
KIM DRYDEN has come aboard as a program manager. She recently moved back to Central New York. Her background is in media production and operations, and she’s held leadership roles in diverse organizations, including an education-technology startup in Silicon Valley and a nonprofit focused on voter turnout. Dryden is managing WISE’s programs related to COVID-19, allowing the center to do even more to support Central New York’s women business owners as they navigate this pandemic. She enjoys the behind-the-scenes work of developing programs, managing the grant, and generally making sure the trains run on time, but is most looking forward to connecting with and learning from local entrepreneurs.
