🌊about me

I build teams by day and stories by night. Both, in their own ways, are about trust.

My teams and I spend our hours keeping complexity safe — balancing compliance with curiosity, ensuring transformation never outruns control. Decades across the financial giants of the world have taught me that security isn’t about fear; it’s about respect.

Outside the workspace, you’ll find me somewhere quieter — beside a river, on a motorcycle, or behind a page. That’s where the other half of me lives.

I write because words help me remember — and make sense of how much I’ve broken, and what I’ve built. Over time my writing has gathered into four corners — Mountains and Rivers, Nooze on Lila, My Wall and I, and Reflections. Each holds a part of me: the traveller, the rider, the listener, the learner. Together they trace how I try to make sense of stillness and motion, solitude and connection, memory and becoming.

I’ve come to believe that risk and life share the same paradox: both demand control, and both reward surrender. Leadership, too, is part science, part soul — a balance between the mountain that stands firm and the river that keeps flowing.

This space is where those worlds meet — the leader and the storyteller shaking hands; where I try to make sense of code and chaos, people and purpose.

✍️ my creed

A soldier’s tenacity, a poet’s ache, a farmer’s diligence — and, hopefully someday, a monk’s patience.

Measures risk by day, and redemption by night. Has loved. Has known loss. Has been broken. Has built.

Rooted in his home — flies with the wind. Rides on the surface — breathes under the sea.

The mountain and the river — living, wrestling, and learning — together, always — in the sunshines and the shadows.
