We are seeing more women promoted in corporate America, walking into entrepreneurship, earning advance degrees, leading in politics and other fields. And we cannot forget that women, while they are achieving in their professional lives, also are wearing the important hats of being a wife, mother, caregiver, church member, and volunteer in their communities. This is why the d-mars.com Top 30 Influential Women of Houston has been and will continue to be a long-standing tradition. Being in business for more than two decades, it is our honor to shine the spotlight on women, as they continue to support our publication and be a driving force in the d-mars.com brand being a well-respected name and business in this city.

The d-mars.com Top 30 Influential Women of Houston recognizes deserving women who are successes in their professions and who possess a servant-spirit. Being selfless is something one cannot forget on the path to success, and this year’s honorees are shining examples of that. And fighting through humble beginnings and overcoming challenges, these women have exceeded expectations, being the epitome of women’s empowerment.
