  • finance
  • deep house

Music, Movies, and Books

Pretty much anything!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

2 days before I was due to take the CFA Level 1 exam, a friend called to say that he wanted to go skydiving so we made an instantaneous decision to jump out of a plane in the Cape Town area. It was an exhilarating experience to skydive and is definitely one thing I will do again (hopefully in Dubai). I ended up passing the exam too :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Would love to share my experiences of living in Sub-Saharan Africa, the contrast of working in finance and doing more creative things. I'm a huge F1 fan and can spend hours talking about existential and philosophical questions over a few drinks.

Want to learn about the experiences of others and how their lives have been shaped by the places they've lived in and traveled to.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love red wine and have compared different types around the world. I want to share the knowledge that South African Cab Sauv is the best! :)
