Bianca Vermeulen - Head of Operations
Bianca Vermeulen is originally from Cape Town, South Africa, but now living in Tbilisi, Georgia. She has 12+ years of experience in administration and team management roles and is passionate about providing behind-the-scenes support to ensure that everything runs as smoothly and efficiently as possible.
As a result of learning some apologetics, she is able to provide a logical explanation as to why faith in Jesus makes sense. This, along with her personal experiences of how Jesus has shown up in her life, is a helpful tool in sharing her faith. She also appreciates how different people take different approaches to sharing and practicing their faith based on how God leads in the moment.
"I feel very blessed to be able to merge my personal faith and professional career in my new role at Worldview Summit and have the opportunity to make a purposeful impact on others."
