Her leadership and determination has won her numerous national awards. Margo is in her second term as the Chairwoman for the National Center for American Indian Enterprise Development (a position that has never been held by a woman), member of Women Empowering Women in Indian Nations, the keynote speaker at numerous conferences nationwide and has testified in front of Congress regarding the modernizing of SBA’s entrepreneurial development programs.
