"Sophie has been an incredible advisor to me personally, as well as for our business Tunic Pay. With her guidance, I have navigated major transitions like changing role, career exploration, and product deployment questions. She is someone who is not scared to get really practical and tactical - and who has instincts about both people and strategy to push you to think further. I've loved working with her."

A trusted sparring partner

Working with Sophie has been incredibly valuable to me. Having built and scaled a highly successful company herself, she really understands the situations and decisions that come with building and leading a company.

What I appreciate most about Sophie is how quickly she gets to the heart of a situation. I often feel that she immediately understands where I’m coming from without me having to explain too much. She draws on her own experience, challenges me at the right moments, and has become someone I deeply trust as a sparring partner.

Sophie has become more than an advisor to me. I’m incredibly grateful to have her in my corner and would highly recommend her to any founder looking for a thoughtful, experienced and honest sparring partner.
