About Me
As a dedicated interdisciplinary scholar, I am inspired by a deep passion for discovery and the pursuit of rigorous research. Guided by a commitment to originality, my work aims to uncover insights that enrich both academic and professional communities, fostering meaningful discussions and advancing our shared understanding.
I bridge international relations, global business consulting, and leadership advisory to deliver strategic guidance tailored to top executives and organisations operating in an interconnected world.
Additionally, I produce and host IR thinker, an esteemed international talk show where I engage in thought-provoking conversations with leading experts in international affairs, offering nuanced perspectives on global dynamics.
