Some news I'm proud to share. 🥁
I've been named a Finalist for the WiBF Award for Achievement in Professional Services at the 2026 National Industry Awards, recognised alongside 300 outstanding nominees from across banking and finance.
WiBF has spent years championing something the industry still needs more of: genuine, structural support for women building careers and businesses in finance. Not token recognition, but real advocacy for diversity of leadership, thought and experience in an industry that shapes so much of everyday life for Australians.
That mission matters to me.
Panache Financial was built on the belief that regional Australians. and particularly women navigating finance, whether as clients or professionals, deserve better access, clearer advice and brokers who actually understand their circumstances.
Being named a finalist for this award tells me that approach is resonating, not just with clients, but within the industry itself.
Representation in finance leadership isn't just a nice-to-have. When more women are visible in this space, more women feel confident to ask for advice, negotiate terms, and take control of their financial futures. That's the ripple effect I care about most.
Proud to be a finalist. Prouder still to be part of an industry pushing toward something better. 🙌
