Article provided by Rep. Schweizer

 State Representative Brandun Schweizer (R-Danville) invited two guests from the 104th District to attend the third annual Emerging Women Leaders Conference (EWL), hosted by Illinois House Republican women legislators. Wendy Hundley and Rheanna Ollis joined the Representative at the conference. 

“I am honored to have such great women leaders in the 104th District to accompany me at this conference,” said Rep. Schweizer. “Rheanna and Wendy exemplify what women leaders look like and excel at their roles.” 

Rheanna works for the City of Danville as the Community Relations Coordinator and attends the University of Illinois-Springfield, working towards her Bachelor’s in Political Science, with Minors in History and Communications. Wendy is the Village Clerk for the Village of Savoy and attended Parkland College and Eastern Illinois University, with a background in General Studies and Psychology. 

The two women were invited to Springfield to a brunch, question and answer segment, and certificate ceremony hosted at the Inn at 835, in Springfield. Following the first event, they then attended breakout sessions of their choosing at the Capitol Complex to hear from different women leaders about their paths, backgrounds, and tips for success.
