The Southwest Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce the appointment of Margie Asef as the Chairman for 2021. The Chamber Board of Directors believes she best represents the ideals and values the Chamber aspires to promote and look forward to her leadership during these challenging times. The Chamber’s goals are to promote economic growth, support education, and to support the local community through providing a forum for business leaders, non-profit organizations, and educators to connect, and serve our community.
Chairman Weare Gratwick stated, “Under Margie’s leadership, the current Board and nominating committee are confident we can continue to grow and meet our commitments to the communities we serve.”
Margie Asef has enjoyed a variety of life experiences living in Ohio, Kentucky, California, and Georgia. She currently serves as the Community Relations Director for Greater Atlanta Christian School, managing public relations, facility rentals, sponsorships, internships, and large-scale events. She was selected to participate in Leadership Gwinnett in June and will be a member of the Class of 2022.
A life-long learner, Margie seeks to live out her faith, love her family and others, and travel as often as she can. She has a natural curiosity about people, places, and cultures which makes connecting in the community a true joy. Living in multiple states and traveling abroad has deepened her appreciation of various cultures and the world’s beauty.
Beth Coffey, Director of Sales and Membership Support, whose duties are to oversee the day-to-day operations of the Chamber, will continue in that role. The Southwest Gwinnett Chamber was formed in 2012 and serves the Norcross, Peachtree Corners and Berkeley Lake communities. They look forward to another year of upward mobility and growth.
