Could you start by telling us a bit about yourself, your role at Vortexa and what led you to the role you are in today?
I studied International Business whilst at University which allowed me to study abroad for a year in Sydney, followed by a year in Amsterdam. During my second semester in Amsterdam, I chose evening classes so that I could look for a day job to get some global work experience. An opportunity arose for an Events Manager at ING Bank. Before then, I’d never considered working in events, but they told me that they thought I’d be perfect for the role, so I accepted the offer and haven’t looked back!
Since then, I’ve worked in various event roles across multiple companies, and joined Vortexa as Community Manager EMEA in October 2022.
