I've spent the last 15 years doing one thing consistently: finding the opportunity inside the chaos — and helping others do the same.

I started out as one of three people at a boutique political consultancy, Aequitas, and within three years was leading a presidential campaign in West Africa and advising UN-partnered NGOs across multiple continents. I learned early that the leaders who win in complex, high-stakes environments aren't the ones with the most information. They're the ones who can cut through it.

At the Confederation of British Industry, I grew a £1m regional portfolio and built the organisation's first sustainability working group — getting organisations ready for the transition they all need to make. I was already seeing that the businesses that could make sense of the fast-changing landscapes would be the ones that shaped it.

Then I built one myself. As Co-founder and CEO of Compare Ethics, I landed enterprise clients including Zalando, Reiss, Reformation, and Barbour, built a community of over 60 of the world's leading retailers, and raised over £2 million from investors including Morgan Stanley. The business earned Forbes 30 Under 30 recognition, a place in Google's first UK Female Founder Accelerator, and the PwC accelerator programme. I then walked away from Dragons' Den with three offers.

I'm also a mother who beat cancer. And the experience didn't slow me down; it sharpened everything. It clarified my mission: to heal people and the planet through human-centred policy, business and technology.
