Regina Lawless helps high-achieving women of color find purpose beyond their paycheck in order to experience more bliss in their lives and sustainable success at work and at home. Before starting Bossy & Blissful, a community for Black women executives and business owners, Regina served as the head of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) at Instagram.
Prior to Instagram and Meta, she served as the global director of diversity, equality, and inclusion at Micron Technology, where she led the creation of their diversity curriculum and spearheaded talent initiatives to mitigate bias in interviews and performance discussions. Regina has more than 18 years of HR experience working for Fortune 500 companies across various industries, including Target, Safeway (Albertsons) and Intel.
Regina spent the early part of her career as an HR business partner, working closely with business leaders to translate their goals into effective people strategies. Her DEI focus is the culmination of her varied HR experience and personal passion for social justice that was fostered at an early age. Regina grew up in an underserved community that bordered some of the most affluent zip codes in the country. Growing up experiencing inequality firsthand fuels her determination to work toward creating equal opportunity in the workplace and the world.
In 2021, Regina was appointed to the Board of the World Women Foundation and serves as an Advisory Council Member for the University of San Francisco’s Engineering Program. She is a graduate of California State University, Sacramento, in Communication Studies and holds a Master of Science degree in Organization Development from the University of San Francisco. Regina is a Bay Area native and currently resides there with her partner, her teenage son and their dog, Rocket. She is an avid reader, loves listening to music and podcasts, and practicing yoga.
Her first book, “Do You,” will be published by Greenleaf Book Group, in partnership with Fast Company, February 2024.
