Muoio has pledged to make West Palm Beach more business friendly, understanding that progress and growth are the keys to the city’s future.
She frequently tells business and industry leaders that West Palm Beach is not only open “for” business, but also open “to” business. Muoio holds a doctorate in education leadership from Syracuse University and worked for many years as a school district leader.
The next guest speaker will be Blanche Williams, president of Greatness by Design, LLC. (August 12). All talks will take place at the same time and location.
