Managing Director
codeCIA
July 2011 - June 2019
Founder of codeCIA, a consultancy that offered services to a range of clients in the hospitality industry and beyond. Since 2011 our dynamic creative agency provided comprehensive solutions to structure companies and projects, from start-ups to corporate. We provided consultancy services in marketing project and business development. " We always LOVED exciting companies and we believe that everybody should do so. " Our philosophy of "always delivering to the right level" And our development practices of always being black and white, following simple steps that work, helped us identify and address customer needs to make it happen. Applying that same concept we found a need to evolve to current market needs and have pivoted to become a Venture Builder where we can apply years of experience in a more current model of support, continuing to offer mentorship and "hands off" solutions with speed and the quality it deserves.
