My favourite things

As the CEO of a busy AI tech company, most of my days are spent building things, solving problems and thinking about what comes next. But there’s more to life than work, and I’m happiest when I’m surrounded by good food, good people and a few quiet hours to myself.

Food, food, food!

I have a weakness for Korean and Sichuan food. The hotter, the better. I’ll usually choose the highest spice level, even when I know I’ll regret it halfway through.

And, of course, nothing beats my mum’s sundubu-jjigae, though. That’s still what home tastes like to me.

My style

I like things simple and well made. At work, you’ll usually find me in a well-tailored grey suit. Off duty, it’s darker tones, simple T-shirts and rolled-up white shirts.

Drake’s and Anderson & Sheppard are two of my favourite brands. Understated, timeless and never trying too hard.

My soundtrack

Mainly blues, soul and jazz. And when I need to focus, anything without lyrics like ambient, classical or lo-fi. Guns N’ Roses and Oasis are the exception. My best friend Syd introduced me to them when I was fourteen, and they’ve stayed with me ever since.

... and beyond

When I need to slow down, I disappear into a good film or a book. I’m drawn to stories about identity, responsibility and what it means to be human. Never Let Me Go is the book I keep coming back to.

What I'm into...

Saturday mornings are for tennis with Liam near Wimbledon. I’m also a lifelong Chelsea supporter, so there’s usually a match somewhere in my weekend. When I’m not out, I’m probably at home with Auric, my cat, or catching up on a film or a good book.

My favourite people

I’m lucky to have a small circle of people who have been part of my life for years. They keep me grounded. And they remind me that, no matter how busy life gets, the people you share it with are what make it meaningful.
