"Kate's involvement in the Surrey business community goes way beyond her own business interests.  She has inspired others (myself included) to set up and run their own businesses in Surrey.  She continues to push boundaries, creating new ideas and schemes to help her own and other organisations."

"Kate approaches each day with hurricane force, ensuring we don't just focus on all the everyday transport 'challenges'.  She brings a positive, clear approach to sales, marketing and general business planning and has really helped us to develop the business."

"Kate's approach to achieving goals both on a professional and personal level is one that produces immediate results.  Her credibility and business background ensures she is a sounding-board for ideas, setting out an appropriate path to realise long-held aspirations and ambitions.  Be prepared for change!"

"I known Kate for the last decade and have always been impressed with her sheer dynamism, drive, energy and ability to analyse a given situation, cut through any extraneous crap and get to the root of the issue at hand - then deal with it quickly and efficiently.  Her skills range from sales and marketing through to finance and HR.  I would love to see her take on Alan Sugar and the rest of the Apprentices.  If I was a gambling man I know where my money would be."

"I have been in HR for more years than I care to remember and Kate is the sort of business person who is fairly unique.  Not only is she successful but, as with lots of high performers, she ensures that her determination to succeed and business acumen are balanced by a great sense of humour and a very approachable manner.  During the Surrey Office Star Award there were many people vying for her time and yet she made everyone feel that they were the sole focus of her attention and was never rushed.  She made a big impact and is the sort of person the Government should employ to send out to schools to show kids what can be achieved through hard work and focus.  Surrey needs more business leaders like Kate."

"Kate's generosity and determination to support a local and worthy cause such as ours was evident at our first meeting.  In addition to committing a regular monthly donation to the Hospice, Kate opened her extensive network of business contacts to us, thereby facilitating further streams of support.  Her drive, energy and focus, coupled with her positive attitude and sense of humour makes any meeting with her fun, rewarding and business-like."
