The Power Of Acknowledgment...Kimberly Dillon

People want to feel and be recognized in our day to day lives. People want to feel validated in the things they do. They want to feel their contributions matter.

Twice a month on Tuesdays, WOMEN AT LIBERTY provides a platform for a variety of voices and resources to develop, encourage, and strengthen women leaders. This week, we are featuring  Kimberly Dillon. She is an entrepreneur and the founder of the House of Mikko, a company that matches women who have similar characteristics and allows them to provides hair and beauty recommendations to each other. She founded the company to address the challenges that women, specifically women of color, face in finding the "right " beauty products that work for them.  Although her company is less than a year old, she has been featured in TechCrunch and ReadWriteWeb, named by Huffington Post as one of 25 Female Tech Founders to watch, and is a member of Women 2.0.  Kimberly has two undergraduate degrees from the University of Pittsburgh and an MBA from University of Michigan.
