Justine is probably one of the most driven people I've ever met. She's got bags of passion for the hospitality sector and really cares about the future of the industry. She's a cup half full kind of person and her positivity is infectious. I have no doubt that she'll continue in her successes, as she's definitely someone who would never give up. A true inspiration!
