Hello, I’m Aurelia the accountant turned hustler behind Platypus.
I started my accounting career at a UK top 25 audit firm where I trained in accounting, business and tax working on small businesses to large corporate groups in a wide range of industries. After obtaining my charter in 2015, I worked as a fund accountant for a well-known venture capital investment fund where I was responsible for the finance, administration, and internal and external reporting of the funds. A couple of years ago, I decided to quit my job to pursue a little idea I had in my head. Here comes Bleur, the first indie art label I founded.
As a solo founder, I understand the highs and the lows of running your own business and everything in between.
I am passionate about using my skills to enable self-starters and small businesses like me and Bleur to stay on top of their finances and operations and efficiently plan for the future. Building strong foundations for your business from the start is essential to sustain long-term growth without the headaches. Whether you need accounting, tax or business advice or just a sounding board to talk things through, I am here every step of the way.
I am also an independent expert for the European Commission on funding and project reviews and I have been a Jury member for the EU Innovation Radar Prize for several years.
