Elder Introduces Inspirational Speaker

Shelley Elder introduces KSU Women's Basketball Coach Agnus Berenato at Thursday's Women's Business Network Luncheon at Fusco's in Acworth.

She's "phenomenal," and "one-of-a-kind," said Shelley Elder as she introduced Kennesaw State University Women's Basketball Coach Agnus Berenato at the monthly Women's Business Network luncheon at Fusco's Via Roma May 18. 

The women's group — part of the Acworth Business Association and started by present ABA President Danielle Hildebrand and Kelly Wilson of Edward Jones in January — hosts a speaker each month for its growing membership. 

Berenato thanked Elder for her "tremendous support" of the women's program at KSU and called her active engagement there "extraordinary." 

"I don't think of myself as a coach," said Berenato. "I'm an educator." What should women do going forward, in her estimation? "Plan your work and work your plan." She says it is vital for women to help women. "We can do ANYthing!"
