To be on a list that includes some of the most recognizable names in Black entertainment, pop culture, business, sports, and politics has to be a gratifying accomplishment.
For Los Angeles Sparks president and COO Christine Simmons, it serves as a testament to her continued hard work over the years as she was indeed recognized by Ebony Magazine as part of its 2018 Power 100 list.
