Summary

With a proven track record in fast-paced, impact-driven environments, I see challenges as opportunities for growth, which I enthusiastically embrace. Effective communication and an innate ability to build strong relationships have always helped turn obstacles into valuable lessons.


Throughout my career, a natural drive and enthusiasm for improving have fuelled a continuous exploration of new developments and expansion of my skillset. What truly sets me apart is an ability to connect with others and drive remarkable improvements in every company I've been a part of.


From helping an educational technology company reach over 1000 schools with captivating web copy to raising the expected standard for students using emotional intelligence, my passion lies in making a genuine difference in people's lives and empowering companies to reach their fullest potential.
