Iris Sherman knows what it feels like to be a victim of gun violence and a survivor. She was shot through her car while driving through an active crime scene that was not protected in Washington, D.C.. It has changed her and her loved ones' lives forever. Since then, she's worked hard to overcome her pain and suffering from surgeries and PTSD. When Iris saw Lisa Fine and Brian Claypool on CNN, she felt compelled to reach out. She's thrilled to be a part of the Route91Strong family. Iris is a successful award-winning entrepreneur, known for creating new businesses and bringing impactful products to market to improve and change the human condition. She's successfully led multi-million-dollar capital raises. She'd accepted risk, uncertainty and rejection as part of her entrepreneurial life, but getting shot and being a victim of gun violence was never part of her plan. Now she's putting her business skills in action to help raise funds at corporate levels for Route91Strong.
