Stacey Wright

Chief Operating Officer

With a career in hospitality and several years as a small business owner, Stacey is keenly aware that vulnerability is a huge factor for single women using public transport. The most exciting part of ChaufHER for Stacey is the chance to empower other women to earn an income on their terms. From marketing to finance, Stacey brings a wealth of knowledge to the ChaufHER business.

Michele Wassung

Media Marketing Relations Officer

As a mode of transport, Michele spent many years catching cabs and public transport abroad, while feeling extremely vulnerable at the same time. As a mother of two, she understands how important it is for women of all ages to feel comfortable and confident when using a transport service. ChaufHER will not only create this niche for the rider, but also offer the woman driver a sense of empowerment.
