Girls Inc. of Metropolitan Dallas Alumna Shorma Bianca Bailey at the White House

April 24, 2012

An astronaut, software engineer, college president and student walk into the White House...and they’re all women.

It’s not a joke. At least it wasn’t Tuesday morning when The White House Council on Women and Girls held a gathering in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building focusing on girls in the science, engineering, technology and mathematics fields.

Girls Inc. of Metropolitan Dallas Alumna Shorma Bianca Bailey
Honored as
White House Champion of Change for
Encouraging Girls
in STEM Fields

DALLAS, TX, December 7, 2011 - Girls Inc. of Metropolitan Dallas congratulates their alumna Bianca Bailey on her selection as a Champion of Change by the White House. Bianca is one of 12 recipients nationwide of the Champions of Change honor for being leaders in the effort to recruit and retain girls and women in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields.

As a part of the Champions of Change program, Bianca will take part in a special discussion on this issue at the White House on Friday, December 9. The discussion will be streamed live at www.whitehouse.gov/live at 3:30 pm EST. More about Champions of Change, including photos and blogs, will be available www.whitehouse.gov/champions.

Bianca attended Girls Inc. of Metropolitan Dallas afterschool programs for nine years, and credits her hands-on STEM experiences and exposure to women scientist mentors as a key factor in selecting a STEM path of study and career. Bianca is currently pursuing a degree in chemical engineering at Howard University, set to graduate in May 2012. There she is the campus President of Engineers Without Borders, doing volunteer work in Kenya, Brazil and Haiti. She also mentors girls at Girls Inc. of the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area.

“We are incredibly proud of Bianca,” said Girls Inc. of Metropolitan Dallas CEO Lori Palmer. “Bianca represents and embodies our mission of strong, smart and bold. She continues to be a role model for our girls and proves that anyone can break down barriers and reach any goal she sets her mind to achieve and will be successful.”
