An unwavering commitment to issues related to the arts, equality, conservation, and animal and human rights has been a constant in my life, with values that have guided me through choices I have made and the paths I have taken.
I have a background in communication, languages, culture and martial arts which has been nourished by lifelong international experience, working in Higher Education, business and management, as well as a journalist, writer and translator.
I hold an Honours degree in French Modern Arts, and was awarded a Master of Arts in Comparative Asian Studies, completing a dissertation on Cosmology and Popular Religious Practices in Hong Kong and Japan from the University of Hong Kong, where I also studied for a PhD on Japanese Religion and Society. I also have a number of professional qualifications related to the areas in which I have worked.
My aim here is to communicate what I do and what continues to inspire me. This is a new path and I do not yet know where it will lead, but I do hope that you will join me.
