About Me:

 

Personal:

I was born in 1998 and grew up in the northwest of England, one of four siblings in a busy household.

I started building online businesses at 11 and went on to found and sell multiple seven-figure companies.

At 17, I moved to London to open my first office. By 19, I had left the UK to operate remotely, beginning what would become a life as a digital nomad. Today, I split my time between Portugal, the UK, and several months of travel each year. Read my entrepreneurial journey below:
