Deanna Lafont, customer service representative for Entergy Louisiana's southeast region, was named 2019 chair of the Lafourche Chamber of Commerce.

"I've always strived to be more than a member of the community — I want to be an active participant in making it a better place to live and work. It's why I'm really excited to have an opportunity to lead the Lafourche Chamber of Commerce this year," Lafont said.

Lafont is a member of several industrial and community organizations. She earned a bachelor's from Nicholls State University and a master's in community and economic development from University of Central Arkansas. In 2014, she was named one of the Best of Lafourche 40 Under 40.
