UNLEASH YOUR POWER: 
​Stop Shrinking. Start Leading.
Speaker: Joyce King | Deputy State’s Attorney, Frederick County
​
A keynote focused on helping women recognize the ways they unintentionally minimize their voices, talents, and presence — and how to break those patterns with confidence and purpose. Through candid stories, practical strategies, and leadership insights, this presentation challenges attendees to own the rooms they have earned, communicate with authority, take strategic risks, and lead boldly in their careers, communities, and lives.
​

Ms. King also serves on the Board of the National District Attorneys Association and on the Law Enforcement Advisory Board for the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, contributing to national strategy, training, and legislative efforts.
