About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Search for Happiness, Help create awareness of global injustice through creating short films.

ABOUT ME

I live in England, not so long ago it was Peru and before that Hong Kong!

I currently run an new NGO called 'Future Voices International' were hoping to give young people living in deprived regions of Latin America a voice and platform to share the stories with the world. (www.futurevoicesinternational.org)

Graduated University internationally in Industrial Product Design, Now I work alot, but always try take time off to travel and seek adventures around the globe!

I have a passion for travelling and working internationally, past experiences have taken me to the industrial cities of China through to the shanty towns of South America. My passion for knowledge takes me everywhere looking for new experiances and education into cultures and traditions.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is there to enjoy, Live it, Love it, Experiance it.

I live by the following:

"The greatest sin of all is risking nothing" Sin Nombre

"Be the change you want to see in the world" Mahatma Gandhi
