By Julia Franklin
The Miami Chapter of the Black Professionals Network (BPN) celebrated the achievements and legacy of ten exceptional women at its 6th Annual Black Women in Excellence Brunch on Sunday, April 6, 2025. Held in Aventura, the sold-out gathering brought together community leaders, professionals, and allies to honor the honorees’ outstanding contributions to their industries and the broader South Florida community.
This year’s brunch spotlighted a dynamic lineup of honorees: Anna Bo Emmanuel, Alexis Brown, D’Bria Bradshaw, Dr. Danita Crawford, Dhamia Lindo, Michelle Johnson, Stephanie Sylvestre, Stichiz, Teri Williams, and Dr. Venessa Walker. Each woman was recognized for her professional excellence, community impact, and dedication to building a lasting legacy.
Attendees enjoyed a gourmet brunch, along with moving tributes and networking opportunities that fostered connections across industries. The event served as both a celebration and a call to action to uplift and support Black women in their personal and professional journeys.
Open to all, the annual brunch has become a cornerstone in BPN Miami’s calendar, attracting attendees who seek to connect, honor, and be inspired. With a focus on sisterhood, allyship, and community building, the brunch underscores BPN’s commitment to fostering a national network of legacy builders.
Founded to connect one million Black professionals and help them become one introduction away from new opportunities, BPN continues to expand its footprint through formal chapters like the one in Miami. The organization remains dedicated to guiding its members toward legacy-driven goals by providing access, resources, and a powerful support system.
