I love helping women social innovators to be more influential and better connected. I have founded Oguntê and the Global Tribal Network, to prove that women can solve pressing social issues when given more skills and space to do so.

I am passionate about supporting, connecting and promoting women who work in social enterprises, networks and campaigns, and contribute to making the world a better and more equitable place.

I have closely helped over 2000 women so far, in Europe and South America, directly impacting over 200000 individuals and organisations.

I am Board Director at Social Enterprise London, a UK Ambassador for Women in Business, an RSA fellow, and a Common Purpose graduate.
