It all began with a lemon tree.
I was that kid in suburban New Zealand on the roadside with a sign that spelt “Fresh Lemonade,” seizing the chance to use the lemons from the first fruit of our family lemon tree, despite my mother’s plans to make lemon honey for the neighbours. This is why at Pacer, we have ambition.
I was also the teenager that struggled with an eating disorder but found my way to recovery with the right help and determination. Since then, I have shared my story as a speaker at events and schools. I’ve also moved countries, become a marathon runner, run a tennis club and started my own business. This is why at Pacer, we are resilient.
I was also the strategist who worked full time for one of New Zealand’s biggest brands whilst teaching at a university. This is why at Pacer, we have grit.
I am also a small business owner, not feeling fulfilled in the corporate world helping big brands get bigger, I wanted a change to help small business owners thrive. This is why at Pacer, we care.
I understand that behind every small business is a big dream which has also required ambition, resilience, grit and care. Just like turning lemons into lemonade, I believe everyone has their own version of a lemon tree and the potential to succeed.
At Pacer, we guide small businesses toward growth, step by step. We’re like your training partner for a marathon, helping you get business fit for whatever challenges lie ahead. With Pacer, you’re never alone—we’re in it with you, every step of the way.
