I'm kind, sensible, thoughtful, positive, caring and love to make others laugh. I believe a beautiful life is a simple one. I value all living things, diversity, freedom, hard work, music, playfulness, exercise, shared meals, creativity and dancing.

I'm a strategic and creative marketer with 6 years management experience in urban design, culture and transport. I recently renewed my 5-year UK ancestry visa and am freelancing with an ethical cycling enterprise while managing a community-led urban design project with the local council. Before becoming self-employed, I worked with a Stirling prize-winning architecture studio and culture magazine in London, and a social enterprise in Cambodia.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I gave Live Below the Line a go and ranked in the top 5% of 1585 solo fundraisers. Across 5 days, while eating and drinking on only $2.25 a day, I raised over $1,000 to support ADC. This incredible charity generates small loans for budding entrepreneurs in developing communities, empowering them to break the poverty cycle through local business initiatives.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good stories, beautiful food, business or marketing guidance, help with chores, excellent conversation and much, much more. Plus! You'll have a new friend from NZ and are welcome any time if you make it to the end of the Earth.
