What are the ups and downs of being an entrepreneur? How do you secure sufficient capital in the start-up phase? And what’s the secret to business development?
NRK Construction founder and owner Norisha Kirts Glover will share those insights and more on the July episode of Strictly Business. The webcast will air at 11 a.m. July 19. Register here.
Norisha grew up in Tioga, Louisiana and holds two degrees from LSU: a bachelor’s degree in communications and a master’s degree in public administration.
With a 12-year career as a fundraiser, she worked to support education reform and higher education institutions in Washington, DC, California, and Virginia before returning home to work for the LSU Foundation supporting the E. J. Ourso College of Business.
In 2015, Norisha put her fundraising, business development, and project management skills to use in founding NRK Construction.
With her knowledge of the K-12, higher education, and construction industries, Norisha was appointed by Governor John Bel Edwards to the Louisiana Workforce Investment Commission and the Louisiana Economic Development Corporation, and by the Louisiana Department of Education to the Board of Elementary and Secondary Education (BESE) Accountability Commission.
She has been recognized for her leadership success by being invited to participate in Council for a Better Louisiana’s Leadership Louisiana, Baton Rouge Area Chamber’s Leadership Baton Rouge, and Goldman’s Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses. She’s also been honored among Baton Rouge Business Report’s Influential Women in Business (2020) and Forty Under 40.
In 2020, Norisha served as President of the Junior League of Baton Rouge, a volunteer and leadership development organization of more than 1,600 women. She is also a board member of Currency Bank, Our Lady of the Lake Foundation, Rotary Club of Baton Rouge Foundation, LSU Public Administration Institute, and the Baton Rouge Zoo Foundation. Previously, she served as founding chair and board member of THRIVE Academy and on the board of Cancer Services of Greater Baton Rouge.
