I'm fascinated by people. Why we make the decisions we do. Why some organisations earn trust while others lose it. Why certain ideas change lives while others quietly disappear.
That fascination has shaped almost every turn I've taken, from Botswana to South Africa, from analytics to leadership, from corporate strategy to entrepreneurship, and now towards research, writing and mentoring.
At first glance those paths may seem unrelated. To me, they share one purpose:
Helping people and organisations flourish by designing better decisions.
This is my Digital Garden, a place to share ideas, document what I'm learning, and cultivate conversations that matter. Welcome.
I was born and raised in Botswana. Long before I understood strategy or leadership, I learned something more important: that community is something you build, that resilience often looks ordinary, and that people matter more than appearances.
Growing up taught me to notice people, to listen before speaking, and to ask questions before offering answers. Those early lessons shaped almost everything I've done since.
Botswana gave me more than a home. It gave me my compass.
My career has never followed a straight line. I've worked in technology, analytics, customer strategy and leadership, each chapter introducing me to different problems and different ways of thinking.
Along the way I completed an MBA while working full time and raising a family. It reminded me that growth is rarely convenient. It asks for patience, discipline, and the will to keep learning long after formal education ends.
Every role left me with one lesson: data tells us what people do. Understanding why is a different craft altogether, and it's the one that continues to shape how I lead, build and learn.
Today my work sits where strategy, behavioural design and everyday human decisions meet. By day, I help organisations understand people well enough to build better experiences.
Beyond that, I'm building businesses, writing, preparing for doctoral research, and mentoring people earlier in their careers. Some weeks are all customer analytics. Others are spent on a brand, an article, a mentoring conversation, or an idea inspired by Botswana.
From the outside it may look like several careers. To me, it's one body of work, and I've stopped thinking of it as a career at all. It's simply the work I want to leave behind.
