My Story
Sydney, Australia
Where I discovered a love of surfing and adventure. Sydney will always be home.
Corporate Australia
After graduating in finance and economics, I started working in finance and banking roles in Sydney.
Gap year (or two)
I quit my job to travel, volunteer, and work in places like Vietnam, China, and Panama.
Australian start-up ecosystem

I returned to Sydney eager for a new challenge, soaking up everything I could about innovation and start-ups.
Amsterdam, Netherlands
A long-distance relationship and an opportunity to work for bundl, a leading European venture builder, led me to move to Amsterdam.
Barcelona, Spain
Moved to the city of beaches to support my active lifestyle and to cofound OLEUS with Nestlé and Bundl.
