Ex-doctor/healthcare venture capitalist currently taking a sabbatical to complete an Ironman on behalf of my cousin who passed away from cancer.
Did my undergrad at the University of St. Andrews and medical degree at the University of Edinburgh. Although I went to the same school as William and Kate, I am not part of the British royal family.
Play golf, tennis and basketball when I can. Primarily watch football (both types) and basketball while spending way too much time thinking about Kawhi's shot, debating whether Jurgen Klopp or Masai Ujiri are the greatest men alive and contemplating why Lamar Jackson and the Ravens offense is so inconsistent.

Visited 55 countries by the time I was 21. Got super lucky to be born to parents who loved 15-hour flights, traveling to multiple continents in the same week and exploring all the beauty this world has to offer.

Since leaving medicine in 2018, discovered a love for writing, reading and meditating (thanks Tim Ferris) having read 281 non-fiction books, written over 957 blog posts and meditated for more hours than you can imagine. All of these numbers are wrong, but hopefully you get the point - I've been busy.
Started this website as a way to learn from the past, write for the present and use it to prepare for our challenging future.
Hope you learn something while you're here and get inspired to be a better you.
If you want to support me along this journey, feel free to buy me a beer. Really appreciate it.

No longer a VC after almost 6 years at Amplitude Ventures. Didn't end in the best way but really grateful for the experience. After my Ironman sabbatical, currently working as the director at an incubator supporting international startups coming to Canada and helping a few companies with their fundraising, including one company I think has the potential to be the next Facebook. Let's see, should be a fun year
