About me:

I’ve always been deeply curious about the people around me, and the planet we live on. From my extensive travels over the years, and time living and working in Asia, I have been exposed to different cultures, customs, processes, and points of views, which has forced me to re-evaluate some of my thoughts and constantly evolve my capabilities to embrace new ways of living and working.

When it comes to my work, I am goal orientated, results-driven, love a deadline but also try to instil as much fun as I can in the process! Definitely not a tech geek, but excited by exploring the world AI is opening for us and helping make it work for the benefit of us all.

My passion for helping others succeed extends beyond work. Where and when I can I actively support charities and have spent time working at Mother Theresa’s in Calcutta, Crisis at Christmas in the UK, was a Mentor at the Talent Trust in Singapore, and continue to work with individuals in a coaching capacity to help them navigate and instigate change in their lives.

My Passion:

My passions include travel, photography, walking, sailing, interior design and trying to be a better human. I’m an avid listener to podcasts, with an eclectic interest in all of the arts. A healthy appetite for all types of food and a taste for decent wine, both made better when shared in the company of others, be that great friends or intriguing new acquaintances.
