Career Story
Betty has always been a wordsmith at heart. A graduate of English Literature and Creative Writing, Betty's fondness for words was nurtured during her university years. Her journey to ClassBento was an unexpected turn that occurred during the midst of a global pandemic. The company had just set foot in the UK and Betty was amongst the first pioneers to join the company's UK team. Betty played a pivotal role in shaping the UK site, contributing to its expansion into the US, and lending her support to the Australian team.
At ClassBento, Betty has discovered her true creative outlet. Her role energises her as she loves writing class descriptions that spark curiosity and helping talented artisans and teachers share their skills and passions with the world. With her words as her paintbrush, she crafts stories that not only engage but also inspire, inviting readers to join her on a journey of exploration, learning, and joyful self-discovery.
Betty resonates with ClassBento's values and constantly strives to help people discover new horizons, nurture their inner artists and connect them with their local community. Working in class creation plays a crucial role in bringing this mission to life!
