"It means so much to me to be a judge on the Women in Credit Awards, in fact I have judged every year since inception, and I intend to carry on for many years to come. (...) To have a platform like the Women in Credit Awards that not only gives a space to celebrate diversity but actually encourages it helps have a wider impact on the industry. "
