Today, I dedicate this award to all the women who work with passion at Andy as well as to all the women in the transportation industry that inspire me everyday and keep me committed to gender equality and diversity. To all my predecessors, I thank you for all the sacrifice and hard work it took for paving the way, and thank you for your trust in passing the torch.
