Charlotte is one of the most comprehensive and detail-oriented people I know. She is incredibly hardworking and I learn so much from her including the most important DEI trends and learnings from thought leaders around the world. I am impressed by how she leads projects and is always thinking of how to advance gender equity through all of the Women Empowerment Council’s programs.

I met Charlotte at the 2019 Young Professionals Program of the British Chamber in which I was an active participant and Charlotte was the core project lead. The program would not have been a great success without Charlotte's excellent leadership and project management skills. She was warm, proactive and responsive. She has also been a great advocate of women empowerment and women in leadership.
