about
Crafting stories in everything I do, I am a thinker and a tinkerer. I find myself looking for patterns and connecting the dots, looking at things as a whole and then breaking them apart.
Driven to understand human behaviour, tell stories and build for the planet, humanity and community.
Always looking out for exciting and impactful projects!
