About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to help entrepreneurs and learn as much as possible about chairs

ABOUT ME

I used to run a nonprofit that helps students start cool social enterprises. Last year I decided it was time for a change of pace, and I'm traveling around Asia while I plan what to do next!

I graduated university (studying international affairs) and was interested in learning about something new so am studying Chairs through www.openmastersprogram.com - it's a really cool new educational model that's largely peer driven, check it out!

I'm also overly obsessed with good food!
