Khalia Collier

A proven leader, Khalia Collier wears many hats as the owner of The St. Louis Surge and Vice President for the St. Louis CITY SC, MLS expansion team. Khalia boldly took on the challenge of building the first sustainable women's basketball franchise in our gateway city. A decade and two national championships later, The Surge has changed the game by redefining winning on and off the court playing in the Global Women's Basketball Association. In her role as St. Louis CITY's Vice President of Community Relations, Khalia is continuing to build a legacy in St. Louis as a city of champions! 

With both St. Louis CITY SC and STL SURGE, Khalia inspires people to make positive change, support something bigger than themselves, and create an environment of contagious excitement and energy.

Khalia has received numerous honors, including the St. Louis Business Journal's 30 under 30 award, Power 100 Award, Glamour's Missouri Woman of the Year award, the prestigious Jack Buck Award for community impact, and many others. 

We are thrilled to welcome Khalia to this impactful event to share her inspiration and lessons in leadership with our faithful GNO guests!

Girls Night Out (GNO) is a fundraiser to empower the girls of Marian Middle School.

For over a decade, GNO has generated a popularity for empowering women leaders to help Marian break the cycle of poverty for girls through transformational education -- all within a powerful networking event. 

With overwhelming positive feedback from Marian's 2020 virtual event, Marian is once again leveraging the power of technology to create an exciting virtual program.

Speakers will share their lessons learned, and how they applied their expertise and acumen to emerge stronger than ever - guiding unanticipated innovations, responding to the needs of the community, and becoming a boss in the boardroom while navigating a new work-life balance.

For over 20 years, Marian has provided life-changing education and care to over 300 girls and counting. 

Join us for an amazing event that will leave you empowered and revitalized to continue making a positive impact on behalf of Marian Girls.
