Our agency is led by some incredibly talented individuals dedicated to improving the lives of others. We're proud to share that our President & CEO Dottie Watkins was nominated by Austin Business Journal for its prestigious Women in Business Awards. CapMetro's CFO Catherine Walker was also nominated by ABJ for Best CFO of 2024. Dottie is a proven leader with an unwavering commitment to invest in people. She not only makes it a priority to engage with internal staff, but also to invest in mentorships outside the agency, with a large part of that being the work that she does as a Board Member for Dress for Success Austin. Her nomination focused on those internal and external commitments. CapMetro recently underwent a new fare program, including the new AMP card, and Catherine's recent leadership to bring that over the finish line was part of what stood out in her nomination, as well as her commitment to continue improving the customer experience. Congrats to the other local women leaders and professionals who received the same recognition. We are honored and certainly in good company.
