ABOUT ME

In the morning I drink instant coffee so I have enough energy to make the real stuff.

PHILOSOPHY

Take risks.

Interests

I'm interested in long walks on the beach, reciting poetry and overwrought cliches.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Most of my travels have been in South East Asia. I saw many beautiful things and had many eye-opening experiences in Vietnam and Cambodia.

I think my proudest achievement was completing the Seoul marathon in 2011. One piece of advice folks: Never. Run. A. Marathon.

Two years ago I performed in a small production of Tom Stoppard's 'The Real Inspector Hound' and last year I wrote and directed my own one-act play 'Christmas in Strangeland'.
