“I’m incredibly honored to be included in this year’s Super Women in Business class,” MacAulay said. “The opportunity to share it with such an impressive group of women is an honor.  I’m proud to be recognized alongside women who are strengthening their organizations, developing future leaders, and helping move Memphis forward.”
