Reflections
Q1: Place
If we could do a flypast on any part of the world that is significant to you, which place, city or country would it be and why?

Q2: Life
Give us a glimpse into your life story so far with an emphasis on what you are doing currently?
Travelled to 55 countries and worked in 35 of those for conglomerates and philanthropists. Now the campaign director for a project called 8 billion, a project of the Resilient Foundation which is the charity arm of Waterbear affectionately known as the Netflix for the environment. 8 billion was born out of asking the question, how can we tell the stories of the 8 billion people on earth but from their personal perspective? The aim is to flip the content creation methodology and narrative across the world and try to build those stories of community resilience from the community perspective. It starts in Africa this year leading up to COP27 in Egypt.
