NEW YORK, Feb. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Women We Admire is pleased to announce The Top 50 Women Leaders in Finance for 2025. Success in finance requires precision, adaptability, and strategic vision—qualities this year's honorees exemplify. With their sharp analytical skills and ability to navigate complex financial landscapes, they drive innovation and decision-making in an ever-evolving industry. As problem solvers and influential voices, they are shaping the future of finance.

Among this year's honorees is Melissa Wright, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer of American Pacific Mortgage. Wright is a nationally ranked executive leader and a true expert in strategic design. With more than 20 years in C-suite leadership, she has built companies from the ground up to multi-million-dollar acquisitions, led organizations from last to number one in their industry, and grew sales by over 500%.

We also recognize Susan Jenull, Regional Market Leader for the Institutional Client Group at U.S. Bank. Starting with U.S. Bank in mid-2017, after 15 years of experience with other large banking institutions in Texas, Jenull has expanded the commercial business by over 2,000%.

Finally, we congratulate Yvonna Stevens, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the International Youth Foundation. Stevens is a dynamic finance and administration leader with over 20 years of experience in international nonprofit operations. She is responsible for leading the organization's global financial, accounting, human resources, and information technology operations.

Please join us in celebrating the accomplishments of The Top 50 Women Leaders in Finance for 2025.
