A builder of communities and super connector at heart, as mentioned in OMagazine SA, bringing people together for the greater good is Kave’s core purpose in life.
Prior to starting her ventures, Kave built an exceptional career in Talent Acquisition, Employer Branding and DEIB with some of Europes leading technology companies such as SmartRecruiters, Pitch Software, Zalando, N26, CareerFoundry, and hibooks.
A true believer in - Balance For Better - when she is not changing the world, you will find Kave raising her gifted children and volunteering around the community on issues affecting refugees and migrants. You may also find her writing and planting seeds resulting in your amazing cup of coffee and organic chocolate - in real soil.
