Cato's journey began with resilience. An immigrant from Jamaica and proud alumna of Holy Childhood High School, she arrived in the United States with just $20 in her pocket. Through determination and bold leadership, she transformed that humble beginning into an empire that not only drives industries but also creates opportunities for others.

"Being recognized among such extraordinary women is both humbling and energizing," said Cato. "This award is a reminder that when we lead with purpose and positivity, we not only transform industries but also strengthen the fabric of our community."

This honor underscores Cato's lasting legacy of advancing equity, innovation, and opportunity through her businesses, public affairs expertise, and community engagement.
