Ellen joined the Rethink Events team in 2017 as a Conference Producer, looking after the Future Food-Tech Series. Prior to this, she enjoyed a career in film production, visual effects (VFX) and marketing – producing live events for top technology brands such as NVIDIA, Google Cloud Platform, Adobe, Autodesk, HP, Samsung and Pixar RenderMan. These events were a platform to launch exciting new technologies used by VFX artists and engineers. An active member of the Green Party in Brighton and Hove and with a background in agriculture – environmental conservation and sustainability are topics very close to her heart. Ellen also volunteers with Friends of Brighton Greenway and is developing a Grow Your Own project for urban dwellers with a passion to grow their own fruit and veg.
