Welcome to the About Me Page!
👋
Something to know about me, I am very purposeful in life.
Fun Fact
I like mustaches :)
PS This was not groomed, whoops:/
About Me.
My Focus: I pursue to be both successful and purpose-driven in my career and life.
My 3 biggest passions, not including Family, Faith, and Food, are 1) Building things, 2) Growing things, and 3) the Steep Learning Curve. Please feel free to ask about what they mean to me and I’d love to hear yours.
What’s next?
I am looking for great experiences to accelerate my learning and growth, and to continue increasing my capacity so that I am enabled to deliver great impact in 2030 and beyond, while making a meaningful impact on people, businesses, social organisations and communities now, hopefully with Lyrebird Health.
Two more fun facts about me?
1) I trained in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and have competed three times so far (winning gold and silver in local competitions).
2) I love learning about world history (a history buff you could say).
