Way Out of My League But Doing It Anyway

2016 CREW Network Convention & Marketplace

Marcella 100 member Vicky Gunning was recently named Managing Partner of Locke Lord where she oversees 300 employees along with her role as Chair of the firm's Real Estate and Real Estate Finance Practice. Vicky also is a member of the International Board of Directors of CREW, a network guiding a membership of more than 9,000 commercial real estate professionals in more than 70 chapters across North America.

Today The Marcella Project will join Vicky at the CREW gathering in NYC where we will have a booth. It seems Vicky thinks attorneys need to hear about the work we are doing, too!

In her big announcement interview in the Dallas Business Journal, she was asked about her favorite book.

Tell me about your favorite book and why you love it.

"Lime Green" is a wonderful book written by an incredible woman named Jackie Roese about her story of being the first woman to preach from the pulpit in her conservative church. There is so much to love about this book. It has profound truths about men and women and how we need to work together as God intended. And, if you don't laugh out loud at Jackie's stories of her first encounters with Dallas women and our matching handbags (the "light pink women" as opposed to her "lime green" personality) then you have lost all sense of humor.
