Still pinching myself after being named…Cork Emerging Businesswoman of the Year 2026🤍✨
What an incredible honour to receive this award and to be surrounded by such inspiring people from the business community.
I am so grateful to everyone involved in the evening, including Diane Higgins Chairperson of Network Cork, Dr. Siobhan Lucy Vice President of Network Cork, Ciara Crossan of Wedding Dates who sponsored this award, Dave O’Brien President of Cork Business Association and Emer Cassidy Chairperson of Ballincollig Business Association Ballincollig.ie along with Ciara O’Connor a local Cork councillor.
Starting my own business has been one of the biggest challenges and greatest achievements of my life, and recognition like this means more than I can put into words.
As a woman in business, I’m incredibly proud of how far Holton Homes & Properties has come, and this award reflects the support, encouragement, and trust I’ve received from so many amazing people.
To my clients, family, friends, colleagues, and everyone who has supported me THANK YOU. Your belief in me and in my business has helped make moments like this possible.💗
I’m beyond grateful, incredibly humbled, and so excited for what’s ahead 🤍
