Most people call me Zoopi. I have a habit of saying yes before I fully understand the assignment, then building the system that makes the idea real.

Building Now

Community2024–now

Creative Entrepreneurs SocietyI moved through hands-on event and leadership roles at the Creative Entrepreneurs Society before becoming its President for 2026/27. My work has centred on programme design, team systems, partnerships and succession: helping translate an energetic calendar of events into an organisation that can continue beyond any one committee.President, 2026/27 (previously events and committee roles)

Venture2026–now

Synetra HealthSynetra Health began during an intensive venture programme in Porto in July–August 2026. Our founding team explored how medics make high-stakes decisions when connectivity, power, time and equipment are constrained, and developed Synetra Insight: an initial hardware/software concept for local patient monitoring and decision support. It remains an early concept and prototype — not a clinically validated or deployed medical device.Co-founder — design, procurement, prototype and venture narrative

Experiment2026–now

QuorumA product experiment born from society coordination pain: finding a meeting time across a group split between Google and Outlook accounts, without anyone exposing their whole calendar. Prototype stage; name and ownership still being settled.Designer / builder

Venture2025–now

PrismaticPrismatic explored whether a small multidisciplinary team could function as a venture engine — supporting several pre-seed ideas while building repeatable systems for positioning, product definition, brand and execution. At one point the remote team numbered roughly seven to eight people contributing around 15–20 hours a week across four to five early ventures. Those figures describe an operating phase, not market leadership.Co-founder / operator (to be confirmed)
