I have a real passion for a business that has a unique story to share along with local NZ start-ups that are built on ingenuity. Have spent the majority of my professional time in fast-paced agency /grocery / FMCG / media environments, and managing multiple stakeholder priorities.I’m highly motivated, composed under pressure, enthusiastic and adept at building trust amongst senior leaders, stakeholders and customers through driving standards, commitment and integrity.Driven by learning opportunities, motivating others, working collaboratively and breathing new life into teams and projects.
