Being part of a team of Panvestors is uplifting and energising! When I see a process or a system, I’m always on the lookout for ways to make improvements. I am open to crazy ideas. We can change status quo, we can implement a more circular economy or go low carbon. I believe that as humans, we can turn our work into poetry; and create something new and beautiful.
