Today we get to celebrate something incredibly meaningful for our team and for one of the most respected people in our industry. Lesley Farmer has been named one of Monitor Magazine’s Top 50 Women in Equipment Finance, a recognition that reflects both her professional excellence and the way she has shaped this industry for the past two decades.

Lesley is a standout in the equipment finance world, but what makes her remarkable goes far beyond the deals she closes. She shows up for people. She listens. She encourages. She celebrates others and brings out the best in everyone around her. Her impact is measured not only in the businesses she has helped grow but in the trust and confidence she builds with everyone she works with.

For 20 years, Lesley has been a steady, trusted presence at KLC. She leads with heart, serves with humility and carries herself with a quiet confidence that makes people feel supported and understood. She has earned deep respect across industries, especially in the family entertainment space where her relationships and reputation have become synonymous with integrity and expertise.

Wow, what a month it has been for Lesley. Fresh off her Finance & Commerce Top Women in Finance honor and Circle of Excellence induction, this Monitor recognition adds to a season that truly reflects the heart, consistency and service she brings to our industry every day.

Lesley, we are so proud of you. Thank you for your leadership, your heart, your example and the countless ways you make KLC better.

Congratulations on this well deserved recognition. We are honored to celebrate you today and every day.

Last night in Minneapolis, our team had the joy of celebrating something truly special 🎊 Lesley Farmer being named one of Finance & Commerce’s Top Women in Finance and officially joining the Circle of Excellence.

For anyone who knows Lesley, this honor feels less like an award and more like a reflection of who she is every day. In her 20 years with KLC, she has supported customers, colleagues, vendors and business owners with a level of care, consistency and integrity that is rare in any industry. She leads with heart, serves with humility and builds relationships that last. Her success is rooted in character, and that is exactly why people trust her so deeply.

Seeing our whole team together last night, cheering her on and celebrating a career filled with impact reminded all of us why culture and relationships matter and make all the difference.

Lesley, thank you for twenty years of dedication, joy and leadership. We are honored to celebrate you and even more honored to work alongside you.

Congratulations, Lesley, on this well deserved recognition and your place in the Circle of Excellence.
