A TRAILBLAZER in the aviation industry has been named Kingston’s woman of the year for 2023.
Adrianne Fleming was named the Kingston woman of the year last week. She is a board member of both the Regional Aviation Association of Australia and the AMDA Foundation. She has also been involved with not-for-profits such as Women in Aviation Australian Chapter, Australian Women Pilots’ Association, Moorabbin Airport Chamber of Commerce, and Monash Council’s Empowering Monash Women Steering Committee.
The Kingston woman of the year awards were handed out at an International Women’s Day event last week. The winners in the other categories were Derrimut Weelam Gathering Place co-founder Aunty Katrina Amon, basketballer Jess McKenna, therapist and educator Michelle Kornberg, and technology professional Harini Karthikeyan.
Kingston mayor Hadi Saab said “these awards highlight the outstanding contribution that women make to Kingston’s industry, community, and society. All the nominees are leaders in their field, who inspire others and who make a difference to our community through their exceptional professional or personal achievements.”
