Kristerbella Sookdeo — or simply Bella — has always been curious about the space where technology, people and stories meet.
A Caribbean technology presenter, storyteller and industry voice, she has spent her career immersed in the world of technology while using media, conversation and storytelling to make it feel a little more human.
Rooted in Trinidad and Tobago and inspired by the wider Caribbean, Bella is passionate about the ideas shaping how we live, work, create and connect — and about making sure Caribbean voices are part of those conversations.
Her world moves between technology, media and culture, driven by curiosity, creativity and a simple belief:
“There is freedom in becoming more of who you are, not who the world expects you to be.”
