About me

Smart Chicks make the daily, smart decision to be authentic. We gather monthly for brunch and a little business. Ours is a growing network of individuals teaching the new ABC's--"Ambition. Brains. Candor." The members of this collective collaborate to increase the presence of women in the arts. We gather monthly for brunch and a little business because intellectual capital is the new cool.
