Born in Tokyo to a Japanese mother and English father, I have lived in Taiwan, H.K., and Scotland. My Japanese mother lives in a Scottish castle near St. Andrews (www.dairsiecastle.com), my English father lives in Shanghai but spends a lot of his time tending to his vineyard in Shandong (www.treatyport.com). I have recently graduated from Brasenose College, Oxford university, and am currently working for Naked Communications in Tokyo.
I'm passionate about
Behavioural Economics, Sustainable Capitalism, and anything new, exciting, and really unusual.
