This past 5.5 years have been so pivotal for me, I've grown so much and BAO was such a place of calm and safety for me, I definitely wouldn't be who I am now without it.

Since I have joined BAO, I have received brilliant advice from my mentors in the leadership team. I feel like I am able to better support my team and deliver results more effectively following my move to BAO London. This was the best move of my career
