About

⭐️ Change Maker. Drag Artist. Innovator. Storyteller. ⭐️ 🌸 Help me to make change! I am looking for IT freelance positions and speaking opportunities! 🌸 With a BSc in Chemical Engineering and an MSc (Cum Laude) in Computer Science, I spent 7 years building teams, leading complex projects, and driving innovation across IT, events, PR, and marketing. Then I chose to break with this career. Today, I bridge the worlds of technology, creativity, and queer advocacy, using drag, public speaking, and building my charity to challenge norms and build spaces where people can belong. I specialise in high-performance leadership, transformation, and turning lived experience into impact.
