VUW Women in Tech Profiles

I never thought I'd work at a household name like Unilever – from growing up with brands like Paddle Pop and Dove to now contributing to their success, it truly feels that life has come full circle.

A high effort grade is more important than an A+.

The coolest thing about this job is the real-life experience. For me is it not a specific task that I have enjoyed the most, it is the new sense of professionalism I have gained.

The best thing about my job is being able to turn insights into execution with real results.

Celebrate the small wins: staying positive and focussing on the little things improves your mood and keeps you motivated.

A key long-term goal I aim to achieve is to see a product on shelf that I saw through from ideation to commercialisation. 

Everyone at Foodstuffs is extremely supportive and will take time out of their day to help train you especially interns and graduates.
