I am guided by the belief that we humans are intelligent, creative and adaptive. And that we express this in circumstances in which we feel included and respected.
With a PhD from London University in biological sciences I was a university lecturer in human nutrition. Doing qualitative research on how people construe meaning of food, particularly in social contexts, inspired me to develop a new career as a conversationalist.
This has led to much professional satisfaction, extensive travel, encounters with remarkable people and now a desire to make the fruits of my learning more widely available.
I live in Adelaide, Australia, having recently returned after being away for six happy years in Asia, based in Hong Kong. I have been a Senior Fulbright Scholar at Stanford University, USA.view less
