Picture
I am the Global Head of Product Operations for Index Solutions, a platform that helps companies prevent data decay. I'm also a writer, an actor, and a professional vagabond—travelling a lot of the time since 2000, most of the time since 2014, and full time since the end of 2015. 

Wander though I must (at least half of every year), London has always been the geographical love of my life and I spend more time in that city than anywhere else. One of the key strategies I use to make full-time travel affordable is house-sitting, so I get to keep right on wandering around London even when I'm there (one month in Highbury, two weeks in Belgravia, three weeks in Peckham...you could never learn it all).
​
In addition to living in motion, I love theatre, rooibos, Nepali food, and all manner of strange music. Also books, the sea, the sky, the stars, synchronicity, soul spelunking, foxes, dusk, and things that are inexplicable. 

I have degrees and professional certifications in journalism, travel, and drama, but I've studied many other things from fibre art to business to ethnomusicology.
