Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Help strengthen community cohesion and help people feel empowered to achieve their goals. I do this through a non-profit I started.
ABOUT ME
I like to do daft things, which in the past have included appearing on a TV gameshow, breaking a Guinness World Record, running marathons, hitchhiking 3000km.
I'm an ambitious chap. I quit (what used to be) my dream job to start my own company, which helps others achieve their goals and brings society together.
I'm smiley, laid-back, sociable, adventurous, respectful, open-minded, spiritual, a listener and learner. Rather than loud music, expensive drinks and charmless clubs, I prefer really getting to know people and doing something a little different. Love playing games. Vegan.

A Camp, Manic Street Preachers, The Cardigans, Queens of the Stone Age, Foo Fighters, Muse
Books: Not a voracious reader of books (wish I'd find more time), but I normally plump non-fiction. Love the neuroscience books 'Chimp Paradox' and 'Incognito'). Currently engrossed in the final book of the Millennium trilogy.
Films - Name a famous film and I probably haven't seen it.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Volunteering on the island of Lesvos to support refugees. Despite the misery and injustice, it was a strangely uplifting experience because of the inspiring people I was surrounded by and making an impact with. I'll be heading back to Greece in Oct '19.
