About WISE SF Bay Area

In 2005, our first Chapter gathering featured a panel of some of region's top women leaders in the events space and attracted more than 75 women. Since then, the WISE San Francisco Bay Area Chapter has grown to hundreds of members across the Bay Area region who represent every facet of the sporting and events industry.

To support the career growth of our members, the WISE Bay Area chapter has developed a calendar of events that blend networking, panel discussions, mentoring and health and wellness activities, plus a whole lot of fun! We also work with WISE National to deliver organization wide initiatives such as the WISE Within mentor program and Speed Mentoring Roundtables.

The WISE Bay Area chapter is grateful to its amazing founding members: Joan Ambrosio, Anne Warner Cribbs, Jaci Fong, Patty Hubbard, Alison Ross, Jen Rowland, Beth Schnitzer, Sharon Shapiro, Leah Tuffanelli and Alexandra Walterspiel.
