Building across different sectors has shaped how I lead. I focus on clarity and execution.I have hands-on exposure across FMCG operations, F&B management, and manufacturing environments. My training in design thinking, change management, and organisational behaviour shapes how I work across our family businesses and F&B. I aim to simplify complexity into systems that teams can run with consistency and support sustainable growth.I founded Van Lavino Café LLP in 2016 with a focus on premium patisserie, thoughtful gifting, and spaces customers return to.
