I am joining the West Midlands Board to help strengthen the link between responsible business, social inclusion, and meaningful community impact. My work in EDI and wellbeing has been driven by a commitment to removing barriers, amplifying underrepresented voices, and creating environments where people can thrive. BITC’s mission aligns closely with my values and professional focus.
