About

Achievements

Aside from the parenting of 3 wonderful daughters, I have particularly enjoyed my work in media in emerging markets: FM radio in India and China, film financing and catalogue work in China, software in Singapore and always being the first, using innovation and disruption as a means of creating value, wealth and profit. I am equally proud of my goal of focusing on businesses with moral or social purpose.
