“We are thrilled to have a new principal of Kathryn’s calibre join our team,” said Griffith Hack chairman David Hughes. “It is also a further affirmation of our commitment to gender equity at the senior levels of our firm.”
Of the past seven appointments to principal at Griffith Hack, four have been women.
