Hey everyone - Happy Easter! I’m Oli, one of the co-founders of, Make Waves (www.wearemakewaves.com). We’re on a mission to make sustainability accessible to all, starting with our award winning refillable Antiperspirants! We’re proudly 100% UK made, vegan friendly, cruelty free and 1% for the Planet members.

Before Make Waves, both Owen (co-founder) and I worked in finance (VC / M&A / Big 4) and for our sins are both boring accountants, so if you have any finance based questions, please reach out.

Our goal is to build a brand that blends performance, sustainability, and design - without compromise! It’s a privilege to join the community (thanks @Patrick Crowley), really looking forward to connecting, contributing and learning from others.

I’m based in London and I’m always up for grabbing a coffee and hearing about what people are up to.
