“I’m incredibly honoured to receive the Award for Excellence in Investor Relations from CIRI. This recognition reflects not just a milestone in my career, but a journey spanning nearly 30 years in the capital markets, the majority of which has been dedicated to investor relations. IR has been more than a profession—it’s been a passion. I’ve always believed in the strategic value of investor relations and the critical role it plays in building trust, enhancing corporate reputation, and driving long-term value for companies. To have now received all three of CIRI’s awards is truly humbling, and I share this honour with the many colleagues and mentors who have inspired me along the way. I hope this recognition encourages others in our field to continue raising the bar for excellence in IR. CIRI plays a vital role in supporting that mission, and I’m proud to be part of such a dedicated community.”
