Mansfield Area Chamber of Commerce President
Named MISD Ambassador of Education
MISD is fortunate to have many
community partners. Even as a fast-
growing district, a strong sense of
community helps make Mansfield ISD
one of the most sought-out school
districts in the Dallas/Fort Worth
Metroplex. Each year, MISD presents
an award to one community partner
who goes above and beyond to
impact the lives of students, staff and
the district as a whole.
MISD is proud to name
Lori Williams the 2018-19 MISD
Ambassador of Education.
Lori currently serves as the
president and CEO of the Mansfield
Chamber of Commerce. She is
an experienced manager, trainer,
public speaker, author and business
consultant. Her career has spanned
working with local entrepreneurs and
Fortune 500 companies.
“Lori is very strategic with the
ability to see various possibilities,
turning thoughts and ideas into
action,” said Mansfield Area Chamber
of Commerce Director of Engagement
Kathleen D’Agostino. “She can
quickly assess the unique qualities in
people and how they can work more
productively together.”
Lori’s ability to bring people
together has been a huge benefit in
identifying partnership opportunities
between MISD and local businesses.
Whether that comes through the
Business Expo, finding volunteers
to judge DECA competitions (and
judging herself) and other campus
events, or placing student interns at
local businesses, Lori is always willing
to go the extra mile to ensure student
success at all levels.
“Lori is the quintessential
role model of what it is to be an
ambassador for MISD,” said MISD
Superintendent Dr. Jim Vaszauskas.
“She not only roots for our students
and staff to succeed, she is continually
asking the question, ‘How can I help
you get there?’ She serves as a mentor,
a volunteer, a leader and an inspiration
to all who know her.”
Lori Williams accepts the 2018-19 Ambassador of Education Award at the Employee Awards Banquet.
She can quickly assess
the unique qualities
in people and how
they can work more
productively together.
