Work with me
Grace's Unique Value
As a strategic catalyst working at the intersection of social change, technology, business, and leadership development, my career spans helping over 70 organizations—including Fortune 500 companies and innovative startups—navigate and thrive in complex markets, particularly in Asia Pacific and UAE.
My hands-on, visionary yet executable strategies not only drive business growth but also champion purposeful change, preparing companies to not just navigate but lead in the ever-evolving market landscapes. This cross-sector expertise across private enterprise, non-profit initiatives, and public sector engagements enables me to create unique solutions that bridge traditional industry boundaries.
From creating six thriving communities with over 30,000 members to advising top-tier corporations in enhancing their strategic operations, my non-linear career path has equipped me with unparalleled insights and abilities. I meld creative thinking with global operational understanding to not just aid businesses in growth but to instigate purposeful, lasting change that resonates across sectors.
My multidisciplinary expertise not only covers strategic business growth and community-led innovations but also extends to human-centered product design and leadership development. This integrated approach allows me to create solutions that address both business objectives and broader societal needs.
My human-centered approach and strategic foresight have made me a sought-after leader, speaker and innovator, particularly in initiatives that require navigating complex stakeholder ecosystems across different sectors.
Driven by the challenge of driving change while maintaining simplicity in execution, I thrive in roles that blend visionary thinking with practical implementation.
My role often morphs to fit the needs of the companies I collaborate with - whether it's advising on boards, offering fractional support, or engaging full time, my approach is uniquely tailored, impact-centric, and globally minded - always with a focus on fostering environments where both people and businesses can thrive. This adaptability, combined with my cross-sector experience, enables me to create meaningful impact at multiple levels of organization and society.

Philosophy
Success in today's dynamic landscape requires more than just strategy – it demands a deep understanding of human potential, technological innovation, and purposeful change.
Change doesn't have to be complicated. At its core, it's about connecting the dots between where a business is and where it needs to be, using a blend of creativity, strategic foresight, and an in-depth understanding of digital and global landscapes. My mission is to create environments where both people and businesses can not just grow, but truly thrive.
By working at the intersection of social change, technology, business, and leadership development, I help organisations navigate complexity while while staying true to their mission and values.
