Join us for our second ABIChat luncheon of 2020 sponsored by Abilene's Germ Killer! The theme of ABIChat for 2020 will be "from good to great." Through this series, we'll explore and learn about how different community leaders took their leadership abilities and community projects from good to great!
The second speaker in this year's luncheon series is new Development Corporation of Abilene (DCOA) CEO, Misty Mayo. Before her time in Abilene, Mayo worked in Boerne, Texas, for the Boerne Kendall County Economic Development Corporation and in San Antonio, Texas, as executive vice president at the Economic Development Foundation. In total, she has more than 25 years experience in economic development.
In Boerne, Mayo led efforts for the attraction of more than 30 new companies, including a medical and retail office center, high end mixed-use development, a new national hotel facility and a Buc-ee’s.
She helped raise the national profile of the Texas Hill Country region to attract investments in healthcare, multiuse commercial and retail space and information technology, the website post said. Operationally, she reorganized the organization’s structure and updated their branding, website and communications strategy.
Mayo and her husband, Ted, have three children, who will move to Abilene before her first day, the website post said.
