About

I write and host stories at the intersection of global communications and China, working as an author, editor, journalist, and presenter. My focus is on identifying value across business, culture, and history. Alongside my work in China, I travel frequently to India and South Asia, expanding my business interests. Previously, I lived and worked as a digital nomad across 40+ countries. Earlier in my career, I served within the UK Ministry of Defence, including at the Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe. I hold three degrees, though it was between studying law and business that I developed a strong interest in trading. I grew £1,000 into £125,000 using a news-driven, qualitative approach—tracking global developments and their impact across industries and supply chains. This funded early ventures, including investments in a sustainability-focused mobile game and a workplace posture app. This period also marked the start of my writing career. I have since authored and published over 300 books across trading and a wide range of subjects. After completing a master’s degree at Tsinghua University, my work became more focused on global narratives, China, and value creation. I am committed to truthful journalism and real-world venture building. I believe ethical business, supported by new frameworks rather than governments alone, will drive future progress. My work has taken me to unconventional regions, alongside experience in land deals in Southeast Asia and gemstone trading in West Africa. Most recently, I interviewed 88 of China’s wealthiest individuals for an upcoming book exploring how they are redefining capitalism, wealth creation, and personal philosophy.
