What makes you YOU in one sentence?

I love the ocean and being outdoors – without it I would not be able to survive. I need time in wild places and away from the rat race to keep sane and happy.

How will your outlook on life improve the world?

I remain positive despite the odds. Always keen to work collectively and inclusively to address concerns and to co-create solutions.
