What I am building
A look at the work I have done and the projects I am currently building.
Modern tea brand
Chaiin
Chaiin is a premium chai brand built from family recipes and a love for real ingredients. From sourcing single-origin spices to designing packaging that stands out on shelf, Chaiin brings the warmth of Indian tea culture to New Zealand. Currently operating through pop-ups, farmers markets, and online orders across Auckland.
- Family-recipe chai blends
- Sustainable, direct-trade sourcing
- Pop-up events across Auckland
Events & service
Pop-Up Hospitality
Running live chai service at local markets, university events, and food festivals. Each pop-up is a hands-on exercise in operations: menu design, inventory planning, customer flow, and creating an experience that turns first-time tasters into regulars.
- End-to-end event operations
- Real-time customer feedback loops
- Scaling from counter to crowd
