I love to travel and work with brands that are in the hub of environmental practices from marine conservationists or lifestyle brands with ethical practices, I work for passion, for brands that I can be passionate about, however big or small. Brands that believe in their innovation in business and that look to have sustainable development partnerships. My personal key interests are to drive change towards a more responsible, inclusive, and sustainable growth within brand values. I am always looking out for new businesses that are passionate about taking positive action to make a change.
