Bel Pesce is a renowned author, mathematician, engineer and computer science genius.
At 18 she received a prestigious scholarship to MIT and spent time working with Microsoft, Google and Deutsche Bank.
She has worked with many pioneering tech firms in Silicon Valley and amassed a huge social media following.
She currently travels around the world to share her knowledge and experience of being a tech start up and female entrepreneur.
It was a wonderful informal workshop where we learnt about her life and successful working techniques.
In 2015 my Creative Director Helen Barlow Scott and I worked to design The Little Fair Trade Stamps which would be included in the launch of The Little Fair Trade Shop website Quarter 1, 2016.
In this blog I explain what each stamp means and introduce you to a fairtrade producer who has aligned their business to implement and promote a living wage, decent working conditions, transparency and accountability, empowerment, environmental sustainability, dignity and self respect for all.
This month I continued to heal from surgery.
Completed the prestigious World Literacy Foundation Ambassador 2020 Program and
Attended Ethical Consumer Week 2020 via virtual sessions.
