FastTrack Spring 2025 Graduation

Today, we proudly honor 19 dynamic emerging leaders who have completed the FastTrack Spring 2025 program—an intensive civic leadership experience designed to deepen community knowledge and sharpen leadership skills. Throughout the program, these graduates explored topics ranging from economic development and education to health equity and the arts, engaging with experts and changemakers across Memphis. At this morning’s graduation, we reflected on their journey with heartfelt graduate remarks from Mireya Cortéz and Lynn Whitney Williams, and were inspired by a powerful keynote from Rene Bustamante, Leadership Memphis Board Member and civic leader. Thank you Leadership Memphis Vice Chair and Memphis Business Journal publisher, Joanna Crangle, for presentation of our. certificates. Together, this cohort exemplifies the future of Memphis—thoughtful, passionate, and ready to lead with purpose. We can't wait to see how they continue to impact the city and beyond. Congratulations, FastTrack Spring 2025!
