In Edel’s own words:

“Guidance and visibility are everything. When women see other women leading with confidence and purpose, it opens doors. There are so many exemplary women in our communities that have been empowering role models. I believe in creating space for others to rise—and in building a culture where safety, respect, and opportunity are non-negotiable.”

I am hoping to bring my industry knowledge, collaborative spirit, and unwavering commitment to equality to WICI.
