OUR FOUNDER

Teresa Ann Harvey founded Leading Ladies RVA in 2017. Affectionately known as "Tee", Mrs. Harvey was passionate about encouraging women to lead fearlessly in all walks of life. A health care worker for over 30 years, Teresa's family owned business helped her to realize the importance of a supportive network. To this effect, she organized the inaugural "Leading Ladies Brunch" on May 20, 2017. The brunch was successfully held in Richmond, VA at Paisley & Jade. Under Teresa's leadership, the initial group continued to grow and host many events including those sponsored by AARP & the Black Women's Health Imperative.  The Teresa Ann Harvey Business & Education Scholarship is awarded often to support our youth, professionals seeking education & entrepreneurs growing their businesses.

THANK YOU EVENT SPONSORS
