About Me

I operate my own growth and innovation consulting practice specialising in the entertainment, media and technology space. Always keen to meet people in those industries and network.

Music is the most important thing in my life so I will probably talk about that.
I sing. I create. I listen. I curate. And I share.

I also produce a podcast so it would be great to have you as a guest!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have good friends who are long-time hosts.
I have good friends who had good surfing experiences.
I have hosted quite a few people since moving to London.
I decided to give it a go since 2017 was the first time I travelled solo.
If I meet new people along the way that would be the cherry on top.
