Experiences

♡ Mentor

♡ Mentor

I enjoy supporting those on their entrepreneurial journey and for the past 10 years I've mentored those ranging from designers, under-privileged youth pursuing business ambitions, early stage entrepreneurs, UK SME's during the pandemic via Digital Boost and through the NZ Business Women's Network.

♣ Business idea evaluation

♣ Business idea evaluation

Anthony had a small amount of investment and a big idea to be a changemaker taking digital healthcare to an African Nation. Unlike a traditional business plan we used the Business Model Canvas, allowing us to focus on how parts of his model would connect to create a holistic value driven offering.

♤ Customer Segmentation Opportunities

♤ Customer Segmentation Opportunities

♦ Digital Transformation

♦ Digital Transformation

I grew a team from 5 to 40 designers to support the creation of new digital services for B2B customers including SME, Wholesale, government and corporate. This enabled self serve across various digital touch-points, reducing calls, resolution wait times and automating purchase and fulfilment. [BT]

I love to innovate, problem solve and am a hands on creator. You'll find me tinkering with things, making, baking, creating new products, designing something to fix a problem or sketching a solution. I'm in my happy place creating stuff that solves a problem.
