I am a passionate advocate for Inclusion and Diversity in the Insurance Market with a longstanding commitment to championing these essential values. Originally from South Africa, my upbringing in a culture that celebrated diversity has deeply influenced my perspective on embracing individual differences. Despite existing barriers, I firmly believe that everyone has a role to play in educating and fostering greater acceptance.

In my role as the Business Manager to the CEO of Ki, I have cultivated strong relationships with executive members, while also serving as a role model for inclusivity by openly expressing my sexuality. Leading the Brit social committee, I ensure that events are inclusive and reflective of the diverse tapestry within the organization, aligning Brit with its commitment to embracing diversity.
Recognized by my peers as the leader of the LGBTQ+ Employee Resource Group within the Brit People Forum, I have been instrumental in advancing Inclusion and Diversity within the company. Through my efforts in pushing for the establishment of ERGs and promoting the message of Celebrating Diversity, I have made significant contributions to fostering a more inclusive environment within Brit.

As a dedicated user of social media platforms, I leverage my online presence to advocate for LGBTQ+ initiatives, raise awareness of rights violations, and address pertinent topics related to discrimination. My active engagement extends beyond Brit as a committee member of the LGBTQ+ Insurance Industry Network (LINK), where I contribute to shaping the agenda for the broader London Insurance community and facilitating educational initiatives.

My advocacy efforts also extend to supporting charitable organisations such as the Naz and Matt Foundation, highlighting their impactful work within the LGBTQ+ community. Despite facing challenges in my career due to close-minded attitudes, I have persevered in my mission to promote equity and acceptance, striving to create a more inclusive society.
With over 13 years of experience in the insurance industry, my track record showcases my unwavering commitment to promoting Inclusion and Diversity. From spearheading LGBTQ+ networks to organizing impactful events and raising awareness on critical issues, my dedication and advocacy make me a deserving candidate for recognition and praise in the field of diversity and inclusion advocacy.
