I grew up in a time where the impossible became possible. The unimaginable became imaginable, and the wildest dreams became true. It is this mentality, and outlook, that I take with me everyday to work.

During work, I spend my time creating a global brand through content. My belief is that through the sharing of knowledge, practical insights and interesting articles, one can create a lasting brand. Alongside this, I spend my time contributing to various discussions relating to work and work cultures.

I've previously spent time working with NGOs with causes ranging from orphans, to developing saving systems for the informal sector in developing countries.

My skills include: Writing, International development, Leadership, Marketing, Brand Development, Languages, Communication and NGOs.
