The Financial Women's
Association of San Francisco Scholarship Fund
Presents
"The Thirteenth Annual Financial Woman of the Year
Event"
Wednesday September 24, 2008
Each year, the FWA of San Francisco honors a senior
executive who demonstrates a commitment to her profession
and community, and who actively promotes the advancement of
women. The 2008 Financial Woman of the Year, Leslie Tang
Schilling, is a recognized leader in her field, has
demonstrated a deep commitment to bettering the Bay Area
community, and has a stellar record of actively supporting
and promoting the advancement of women.
2008 Financial Woman of the Year Honoree
Leslie Tang Schilling began her life early on as
an international business woman. She was born in NY, grew up
in Hong Kong, and obtained her undergraduate degree from UC
Berkeley and her Masters in International Management from
the American Graduate School of International Management.
Leslie worked for Wells Fargo and Chartered Bank of London
before launching her own firm. She founded, and is Director
of, Union Square Investment Company, a real estate
investment and management company.
Leslie has impacted many through her leadership in the
business world. Her passion for the industry and for the
community shines through at her own company and in her
service to corporate boards and community organizations. She
steadfastly supports education - being deeply involved with
UC Berkeley and MIT, and serving on the UC Board of Regents,
appointed by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.
These highlights give us a sneak preview of Leslie's story
of dedication and commitment.
Please join us for lunch on September 24th as we
celebrate this prestigious award of recognition for Leslie,
as well as to meet and hear from the 2008 FWA Scholarship
recipients.
