Navigate the Challenges of
Building a Business

14 years immersed in the startup ecosystem has given me a 360° perspective of the entrepreneur's journey. I use this first-hand experience to help early-stage startup founders and executives to navigate the many challenges that come with building and growing a business.

Having co-founded 3 tech companies, I went on to run a venture builder and an accelerator program, eventually venturing into capital. I'm currently Managing Partner and Member of the Board at Arkley Brinc VC, investing in early-stage tech startups. I specialise in pitching, communication skills, business development, fundraising and investor relations.

​

With creative roots as a professional singer and writer, I don't have a typical background – but that's my secret superpower. Find out how transferable skills helped me raise funding on my first ever pitch.

• Business consulting & workshops for startup founders, entrepreneurs and executive teams. Topics include business development, pitching and presentation skills, market validation, getting your business 'Investor Ready', Leadership and Communication skills.

​​

• Speaker / panelist at tech startup events and conferences. I speak about IoT, connected hardware, sustainability, Deep Tech, and about my own experiences as a woman founder and VC. Regular jury member at pitch competitions.

​​

• Articles / Interviews for PR, publications and online platforms. With a background in copywriting, I can provide original written content related to my field, and am available for interviews on relevant topics.

If you'd like to ask me about coaching, consulting or participation in your event, I'd love to hear from you.
