I love what I do. It feels like I am running a few startups at a time (because I can), with the best people. And it’s fun to be a driver with all these brilliant projects.
If you want all the associations and organisations and that business-y things I am part of, please find it on LinkedIn. My life is 100% more than those networks and lovely people and this site is for the other aspects of me.
I’m immensely grateful to be able to do what I love and that the world finds value in it. Happiness is a state, and I could die right now from happiness and all the beauty of life. What a wonderful life. What an exciting time to be alive!
