Dress for Success Greater Chicago (Illinois, US)

Presented by: Sono Bello

I’m honored to join the Women Who Inspire Campaign. With the support of Dress for Success, I’ve unlocked confidence to achieve beyond limits. My journey shows we’re all extraordinary, and our choices can inspire others to shine.

Lydia is a remarkable individual who is beautiful both inside and out. She is an articulate and driven young lady who consistently seeks opportunities to promote herself and the Dress for Success organization.

Lydia came to us as a college student looking for assistance in fine-tuning her employment skills. She scheduled and attended a Career Coaching session; she actively participated in offered workshops and became an advocate for Dress for Success with her peers. She has been our client speaker at several luncheons and has been a two-time model in our Women Wine & Wardrobe fundraising event.

Her dedication and passion for her work are truly inspiring. Currently she works as a Financial Counselor with Northwestern Medical Group. She has a unique ability to connect with people and make a positive impact in any environment.
