With a Master’s degree in Social Anthropology, Tessa is fascinated by how people think, behave, and interact. This background provides a strong foundation for her role as Executive Assistant for the London Buying team at Middleton Advisors, where understanding the dynamics of people is essential. Her anthropology training enables her to connect with clients and colleagues on a deeper level, endeavouring at all times to stay one step ahead in supporting their needs.
Before joining Middleton to support Ashley Wilsdon, Rhianne McIlroy and Oliver Sanhaji, Tessa spent time working at a sustainable fashion start-up and as a PA/EA for a high-net-worth individual. “While both roles sharpened my organisational skills, it was the human connection at Middleton Advisors that truly inspired me, making this role a perfect fit,” she says.
“I love being part of a team that values both professionalism and personal connection, and I’m looking forward to continuing my growth in this dynamic environment.”
Tessa was born and raised in the Netherlands and moved to London in 2020, after living in the U.S., Germany, and Belgium. Her love for travel and food has taken her to exciting places, and she’s especially passionate about exploring London’s diverse food scene.
