As an Anitab.org London Community leader, Liz has been an active member since 2017 she is currently serving as the Chapter Point of Contact. She actively promotes inclusion and diversity.
A woman of colour working in tech for over 20 years she felt it her time to give back to help retain women in tech and encourage those who want to get into tech. Becoming the chapter point of contact in 2019 has led the community to focus on mid-career women by producing programs of empowerment for career development.
Alongside, she has mentored several women on areas such as pay equity, better self-branding which has seen them all move into better-paid job but more importantly gain a career path.
