Beyond Work

Interests

Culture

From Modigliani to Murakami, Coltrane to contemporary theatre — a lifelong pull towards creative expression in all its forms. Museums are a second home, concert halls a third.

Sport

Golf teaches you that most battles are with yourself — read the course, stay composed, accept the bogey and move on. The gym provides the counter-rhythm: consistent, solitary, honest.

Curiosity

AI, geopolitics, design systems, behavioural economics — the thread connecting them all is curiosity. I read widely, ask often, and find the most interesting insights live at the edges between disciplines.

Charlie

Half Saluki, half Greyhound, entirely feral — Charlie arrived from Ireland with the soul of a philosopher and the speed of a small disaster. She somehow makes l'écume des jours feel even lighter.

Contact

Let's Connect

Whether it's a collaboration, a conversation, or a coffee — I'm open to it.
