About Me
Over the last three decades, I have had the honour of serving on boards, advising global leaders, supporting new ventures, empowering coalitions, connecting great thinkers and launching new projects.
I have been a Barrister, a social entrepreneur, a professor, a mentor, a speaker and an advocate. I have had wins and I have had losses but above all, I have persevered in arguing for a fairer and more sustainable planet where humanity can survive and prosper.
This is not just a vision; it is an imperative. We must now connect the dots and bring together the right people, solutions and incentives to act effectively on the climate crisis.
