Biography
In 2005, I took the courageous step of leaving the security of the corporate world, determined to follow my heart and realise my dreams. This journey has led me from England to Thailand and has taken him through Malaysia, New Zealand, South Africa, Honduras, United States, Curacao, Canada, Costa Rica and many other countries in between. My journey is driven by the pursuit of my personal philosophy, which is to always follow your heart. A journey that has not only involved travelling around the world, but also found me working in the scuba diving industry as a dive master and instructor; graduating from Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand, with a bachelors degree in information systems; working as a street funds collector for Greenpeace; and taking on various short-term contractual project management roles.
A passionate conservationist, I have also produced several short documentary films, highlighting the plight of sharks and the horrors of the shark fin trade. A subject very close to my heart.
I currently live in Costa Rica, where I work as a scuba diving instructor and write in my spare time, while always following my own one true path.
