As an openly trans leader, Cynthia regularly helps businesses and government organisations with requests regarding documentation and process. In 2016 she represented GHY at the LGBT+ Chamber of Commerce, and participated on behalf of the business, and provided real life experiences, at a Transgender and Inclusiveness in the Work Place seminar. She has been regularly recognised as a diversity champion, and has recently been appointed to represent the company on a Research Partnership Advisory Panel. Externally, Cynthia was very open about her transition, which she blogged about across various social media channels. She serves on various boards, often as the only transgender voice around the table, and is a regular speaker at events on women and LGBT+ inclusion. She has also led job fair for minority groups, including LGBT+, and is a mentor to a non-LGBT+ woman outside of her company.
