About me:
I’ve always been curious about the people around me, the planet we live on, and fueled by an insatiable desire to experience and learn from new cultures, customs, processes, and points of view. My time living and working in Asia opened my eyes to different ways of doing things, enabling me to evolve my capabilities.
Goal orientated and results-driven, love working to deadlines.
Definitely not a tech geek, leave that to the others.
My Passion:
Travel (cities and mountains preferred), photography (mostly just Instagram these days), walking, sailing, interior design.
An avid listener to podcasts with an eclectic interest in the arts.
A healthy appetite for all types of food (currently trying a plant based diet), a taste for decent wine, both made better when shared in the company of good friends.
Weekend Life:
Having lived in Asia for the last 8 years I am looking forward to returning to my roots and experiencing London life through new eyes. Reconnecting with old friends, rummaging through farmers markets, taking in exhibitions at galleries, and just getting lost in the city and surrounding countryside
Family:
A proud niece and very thankful both parents are still healthy and sane, long may it last.
