From Dyslexic to Davos: It’s been a pretty wild ride over 48 years. I have worked for companies including Nissan, Red Bull Formula 1, Cathay Pacific, WWF, WSJ, Motorola, Samsung, KPMG Consulting and Kelloggs.

From being featured in FORBES about being dyslexic to writing a viral article on Linkedin taking on one of the largest advertising agencies in the world, generating over 10 million impressions online), to speaking at Davos, life has never been quiet. Or dull. While in Hong Kong I was Asia’s foremost charity wildlife photographer, picking up 5 rescue dogs along the way. All of which we brought to the Azores.

My charitable activities include president of The Ocean Azores Foundation, helping to safeguard and promote the Azores as one of the world’s most important whale sanctuaries in the world.
