CURRENT MISSION

Head to Mexico to repair earthquake damage and run a surf hostel.

ABOUT ME

The eternal optimist. I love adventure, music, people and discovery. I love to see the world, meet people and animals of all kinds, understand ancient cultures and the cycles of nature.

MY WORK

I am a structural engineer. I work to create better communities, warmer, drier and more natural homes for everyone. I do this through earthquake repair work and structural and architectural design.

PHILOSOPHY

Be the change you want to see in the world.

FAVOURITE LYRIC

"It's better to regret something you did than something you didn't do"
From Warped by the Chili Peppers
