About Me:

In my previous life I used to be an engineer - applying the laws of nature to build and implement creative (but physical) solutions within boundary constraints.

Now I am passionate about finding or creating creative solutions and answers - in all spheres of life.

I believe I understand a few facets of multi-faceted Africa, some of it's cultures, and a deep appreciation of the challenges to evolve Africa from net consumer to a net producer.
