Renee’ Jankowsky, owner of Generations Salon and Day Spa, wins Triangle Business Journal’s coveted 40 Under 40 Award

The annual 40 Under 40 Award recognizes the Triangle’s best and brightest emerging business leaders

( Raleigh, NC, May 12, 2009….) Renee’ Jankowsky, owner and founder of Generations Salon and Day Spa (www.gensalon.com<http://www.gensalon.com/>) in the Brierdale Shopping Center at Brier Creek in Raleigh, is the recipient of the region’s 40 Under 40 award, which recognizes the top young business leaders and owners under the age of 40 in the greater Raleigh Durham metropolitan area.

The annual 40 Under 40 award is highly competitive and Jankowsky was selected from a large pool of nominees. Her selection was based on the work she has done to build Generations into one of the leading high end day spas in eastern North Carolina. Generations is a full service Aveda-certified salon offering a wide variety of products and services. Jankowsky manages a staff of 28 employees and her business serves an estimated 3,000 guests per month.

She was also chosen because of the extensive work she and her staff have done over the past five years supporting area non-profits. Since opening Generations in 2002, Jankowsky and her staff have donated over $100,000 in time and services to a wide variety of worthy causes. Under Jankowsky’s leadership, Generations has helped such organizations as Interact (Wake County’s rape and domestic abuse crisis center), the MS Society, The Jimmy V Foundation, The Make-A-Wish Foundation and many other non-profit groups that help those in need, or raise research funds to cure critical illnesses.

“I am very honored by the award,” said Jankowsky. “I have one of the best spa staff's in the region and want to thank them for for their talent and high standards.  I could not have accomplished this or the success of my business without them. I also want to thank my husband, Alex, and my mother, Linda Bronson, for their support and acknowledge them for the role they have played making my business successful. Mother's Day this week is a reminder of the key role my mother has played as a mentor and cheerleader for my success. We’re all looking forward to a great year in 2009. Also, I also want to thank the Triangle Business Journal for sponsoring this award and selecting a woman business owner as one of their honorees. I hope the fact that I have won is an inspiration to other woman in the business community with big dreams.”

The announcement that Jankowsky had been selected as a 2009 40 Under 40 Award recipient was made at a gala celebration May 1 in Raleigh hosted by The Triangle Business Journal.  Jankowsky will be profiled in an upcoming story in The Triangle Business Journal, and her name and profile will be included in the region’s annual “Book of Lists,” which identifies eastern North Carolina’s top businesses and business leaders.
