with fierce empathy
I’m a reductivist who loves to geek out on words, a passionate debater, and a cookbook collector. I am endlessly energized by finding that beautiful and elusive red thread that connects so many ways of doing and being across cultures. I thrive on the challenge of distillation, on simplifying the complex, and chasing perfection: the instantly obvious yet completely surprising.
I have spent 15+ years helping clients free themselves from the wallpaper, the jargon and cut through business as usual to shape something of value for the world — always through the eyes of people. I like to voice my strong opinions on Forbes Agency Council and Fast Company Executive Board.
Energetic, loving people, free-spirited, boundary pusher, entrepreneurial Jester.
I see people’s creativity as the principal source of transformation. As a Jester, I call upon people to come out and play and remind them to go beyond set boundaries. I believe the world is generous and full of opportunities. We must believe in a regenerative future and make it happen, starting now with our close ones.
I worked in various companies, from high tech to food, from global to local players in the development world. I am an entrepreneur who failed several times, always moving with a growth mindset and looking to share what I learned to benefit many.
I am a passionate advocate of design thinking to unlock profit that’s more purposeful and purpose that’s more profitable. For over 25 years, I’ve directed multifaceted teams in a courageously collaborative approach to deliver business and marketing solutions for some of the world’s most iconic companies and organizations.
From insights and innovation to consulting and creative, I’ve steadfastly believed in a servant leadership style across ad agencies, design firms, and digital marketing groups with a consistent drive to build brands that make you feel something, do something, and say something. I’m honored to be a board member of an education nonprofit serving refugee children; a marketing advisor to a DEI (diversity, equity, inclusion) tech startup; and a university guest lecturer on marketing with meaning.
Raised in China, a global citizen, beauty and fashion enthusiast, and devoted mother to Leon and Quentin. Gained insight into China through global conversations. Advocates for integrating humanity into business and excels at making abstract strategies tangible. Swiftly turning purpose into action.
As a Crusader, humanity is critical to creating a better world.
It takes fierce empathy to listen to people without judgment. I believe in the power of projective techniques to stimulate conversations and discover the deeper why behind the answers. Understanding people’s behavior unlocks the triggers to vital behavior that improves the world.
I have always loved connecting with people and am fascinated by different cultures and languages. Growing up in South Africa taught me to have resilience and empathy. Today, these skills guide me forward personally and professionally. I am most passionate about building brands and businesses that positively impact people and communities around the world. This is what led me to join Innate Motion in 2019.
My expertise is in capturing trends for Gen Z markets, specifically in the beauty, tech, and FMCG industries. This led to my appointment in 2022 to the Youth Advisory Board of The Body Shop in London. A true millennial, when I am not at Innate Motion, you will find me at a pilates class, trying out a hot new restaurant, or monitoring the latest trends on social media.
