Brenda Williams

Brenda Williams currently serves as a University Relations Manager under Talent Acquisition, for INROADS, Inc. Brenda is an alumna of the INROADS process and has come full circle since her internship and now as a staff member of the very organization that started her career development.  Through the INROADS process, Mrs. Williams completed five sponsored summer internships between her freshman and senior year of college before completion of her Bachelor of Science Accounting Controls Systems at University of North Texas.

In October 2019, Brenda Williams became the Diversity Recruiting Advisor with BKD CPAs & Advisors.  She played a key role in the execution of BKD’s diversity talent attraction and recruitment strategies for campus and experienced talent.  She had the opportunity to turn ideas into action. The role included being responsible for proposing and executing projects to increase the diversity of our candidate pipeline, deliver top notch candidate experiences, build relationships with diverse talent pools, and track outcomes to ensure the most impactful results.  Unfortunately, the position was eliminated due to COVID-19 in April 2020 and she returned to INROADS in a full-time capacity.

Brenda has gained essential leadership and business soft skills that gave her the confidence and preparation she would need to be a successful leader. The mentorship, academic, and professional development exposed her to opportunities she did not have access to and provided networking opportunities to help her along the way.

Her professional journey has taken her to small and large companies performing the duties of an accountant, information specialist, Technical Consultant and Project Manager before becoming a Talent Manager with INROADS. 

In additional to her professional career, Mrs. Williams has been recognized for her community outreach, serving as an active member of the Dallas/Fort Worth Chapter of National Association of Black Accountants (NABA). 

Mrs. Williams continually lives out her passion to work with students thru NABA, INROADS and the Robinson Legacy Foundation while giving back to the very organization and that started her career path. 

Mrs. Williams is married and lives in Dallas.
