Keep reading to learn more about Lenora, and leave a comment to say "hello and welcome!"

Tell us a little bit about yourself.

I am originally a native of MI but have been in “The Glass City” long enough to consider myself a Toledoan.  I am married to local businessman Milton McIntyre of Peak Electric Inc., and we have two lovely children.  During covid our kids decided that four was not enough and they expanded our family through the adoption of two lovely furry puppies.  I now know that I am definitely a dog person and I wouldn’t have it any other way.  

What brought you to the Chamber?
   
The opportunity to work with a state program that I love – The MBAC (Minority Business Assistance Center).  As well as the TRCC an organization whose mission and values align with my belief system. Together I know that we can provide an invaluable service that positively impacts and creates a better future for us all. 

What do you hope to accomplish in your role at the Chamber?
 
I hope to empower the minority business community by providing resources and assistance for growth and sustainability. This includes job creation, scalability, and economic impact initiatives such as access to capital, training, and networking opportunities.  I believe that by supporting the minority community, we can create a more equitable economy and prosperous society.   

What do you look forward to doing in your role?

Helping minority entrepreneurs deal with the sometimes over whelming prospect of growing their    businesses by offering business coaching, mentorship, technical assistance to help alleviate challenges and navigate the often-complex world of entrepreneurship.

What is your proudest career achievement?
   
Working with the Toledo Chamber, the Ohio Minority Supplier Diversity Council and key community partners to create the inaugural NW Ohio Supplier Diversity Expo attended by over 400+ key community leaders, industry experts, supply chain mgt. practitioners and small businesses the conference featured speakers, breakout seminars and networking to connect with peers, learn from industry leaders and advance supplier diversity initiatives.
    
And now to get a little more personal...

Tell us a fun fact about yourself.

I like to dance (non-professionally), and I love to travel.  Now that my youngest is set to graduate college I look forward to expanding my international travel horizons.

What is your favorite book or movie?

Sandra Bullock in anything but especially “Miss Congeniality 1 and 2” and “Gravity”.     

What is your favorite meal or food?

Tacos of any kind.

Tell us about some of your favorite hobbies or things you are passionate about.

My favorite hobby is gardening.  Right now, I’m into growing fresh kitchen herbs and using them as I prepare our family meals.
