To reiterate, I don’t know you and don’t assume your intentions—and thus do not judge them. I’m also not familiar with your work but I have no doubt it’s more relevant than whatever “award”.
In other words: it makes zero difference to me what you write in your bio but I can see how its previous wording took away from what’s important.
Apologies for making you feel judged, my comment was meant as the opposite: the point was precisely that “you do you”.
