“Being a role model and supporting our members in the ways they need has become my personal mission.”
My name is Starr Pettway, and I was born and raised in Schenectady, NY. I currently serve as the Program Coordinator at our Schenectady location, with a B.S. in Psychology. As a child, I briefly attended Girls Inc., but left due to unforeseen circumstances. However, later in life, after discovering my passion for creating a kind, caring, and supportive community for the leaders of tomorrow, I returned to Girls Inc. of the Greater Capital Region
Since then, I have been fortunate to experience numerous opportunities for both professional and personal growth. Although I didn’t gain this as a young member, I am now fully immersed in the Girls Inc. experience. Being a role model and supporting our members in the ways they need has become my personal mission.
I am proud to fulfill this mission every day as a leader for these strong, smart, and bold young souls.
Our girls mean the world to me, and I am committed to providing these bright, growing minds with the resources they need to feel empowered, valued, and appreciated.
