Ellevate Together: Women Leading with Purpose and Generosity

In celebration of Women’s History Month, Ellevate NNJ is hosting this in-person event at Symposia Bookstore in Hoboken on Saturday, March 21 from 9:30 am - 11:30 am. Come join us for coffee and conversations, and leave with a new friend/business partner/future co-founder.

In our panel discussion, Rujan Ahmed sits down with Ratna Rao, who has worked on product development for brands such as NARS, Pat McGrath, and Briogeo, and Alaina Hucke, who built her career at the intersection of high-stakes health care and global beauty for companies including Pfizer, Haleon and Maybelline, to discuss how they navigated iconic global brands to redefine what it means to lead with purpose and generosity.  

This panel is all about exploring how we construct lives that sustain our leadership and reflect our deepest values. Attendees will walk away with fresh perspectives on intentional career design, the power of community, and what it means to align their ambitions with their values.
