About me

Hi! I’m Becky. I’m a fun loving, adventurous female in her 40’s who has a desire to make the world better through ethical, responsible & sustainable business practices and social enterprises.
I started life as a Mechanical Engineer in the UK but then broke away to work and travel across Latin America. I worked for Save the Children in Colombia and Peru, I back-packed from Peru to Canada, I bought a car in Guatemala and drove it to Toronto - It was stuck in 3rd gear for a while in Mexico and I worried it was going to be a slow trip! I lasted a year or so living in Los Angeles being an Engineer again, I met a guy and as you do, set up a tour operator in Guatemala. (www.viaventure.com) I lived in Guatemala for 8 years and am now back in the UK.
I have invested in and consult with a few different companies and am now embarking on an adventure as a software developer! I am always interested in meeting new people, networking & finding ways to collaborate.
