Community Leader Shares Journey from Atlanta to Edina

Stringer Moore, who arrived in Minneapolis through a career opportunity with General Mills, described her transition from Atlanta's thriving Black professional community to life in Minnesota. After initially living in downtown Minneapolis's Mill District, she later made Edina her home.
If you notice an opportunity area, there's an opportunity for you to be a part of the solution,' said Stringer Moore, emphasizing her commitment to service and community impact. 'I am very much service-driven in my professional and personal life. Impact and legacy matter to me a great deal.
Drawing from her experiences growing up in Atlanta's diverse professional community, Stringer Moore advocates for meaningful community connections and authentic engagement. She encourages residents to 'start having conversations with somebody that doesn't believe what you believe and look for the commonalities.'
As a self-described connector, Stringer Moore continues to contribute to local media through WCCO TV while actively engaging in community initiatives. She emphasizes the importance of moving beyond comfort zones to participate in broader community conversations.
