Theresa Agonia
Theresa Agonia is a mission-driven leader, feminist, and proud daughter of immigrants. She feels most comfortable in front of a camera and on stage, having competed at several pageants including Miss USA and placing internationally in Portugal and Bolivia. In 2022, she served as host of the RISE Women’s Leadership Conference and was featured in Apple TV’s season 2 of “Dear…” where her life story was featured alongside her role model Viola Davis. When she’s not in front of a camera, you can catch her at the gym with her personal trainer or serving on several boards focused on how to best support youth from underserved communities. After a decade of public service, she still believes in everyone’s ability to make the world a better place.
