Geri Martin
CEO Skinscape 360
Born on Auckland’s North Shore, I began my career in the design and manufacturing garment industry, spending over 13 years building strong commercial and operational expertise.
I subsequently established The Specialists Takapuna, a practice supporting some of New Zealand’s leading surgical specialists.
In 2025, recognising a significant need for advanced skin cancer monitoring in New Zealand, I co-founded Skinscape 360alongside my husband, Associate Professor Richard Martin. Together, we introduced the Vectra WB360 to New Zealand, integrating world-class imaging technology, AI innovation, and a highly skilled clinical team to deliver an exceptional standard of skin cancer care.
Outside of my professional commitments, I maintain a strong interest in design and value time spent with my husband, our three daughters, and extended family.
