She will also draw parallels between the world of business and the business of art-making describing the roles, challenges and opportunities she has encountered on the path to becoming a leader in the dance world.

Emily was appointed Artistic Director of Ballet BC in March 2010. She is an internationally respected and critically acclaimed artist who has worked and toured extensively throughout Europe, Asia, Mexico, Canada and the U.S. Emily is a former member of the National Ballet of Canada and Frankfurt Ballet and a former principal dancer with Ballet BC.

Event of Interest: Crave Symposium

The Crave Symposium is happening on May 31st at Heritage Hall on Main St.

Says the event site:

The 2010 CRAVE Symposium: an all-day think tank extravaganza for business owners at any level. Get down and dirty with mentors. Talk shop with peers. Your business will never be the same.

The Crave Symposium is from the same organizers as those lovely Crave Books, which feature successful and fabulous independent female Vancouver business owners.

DNA Member Nancy Mudford is featured in the Vancouver Crave Book as owner of the fabulous Le Petit Spa and online beauty store Spa Boutique. She also got a bunch of Crave books for DNA ladies a few months ago. We still have a few more, which we’ll be giving out as door prizes at future events.
