Hobbies

Long distances, deep water, slow dough.

  • Endurance

    Start lines are where I do my thinking. Marathons, triathlons, and mountains when there's time.

    • Marathon in 3h28
    • 25+ triathlons
    • Alpinism
  • Sea

    On it and under it. Raced with the HEC sailing team, and dive on a single breath when I can.

    • 5+ regattas
    • Scuba diving
    • Freediving, PADI Level 1
    PADI certified
  • Photography

    Mostly wildlife and light, mostly in East Africa. A selection is below.

    • Kenya
    • Safari
  • Pastry

    The one hobby where rushing is punished immediately. Good training for long deals.

    • Pastry making

Kenya, June 2025

Five days, one camera. Pick a frame to see where and when it was taken.

Friends of St Martin's

A school in one of Nairobi's informal settlements, and the group of friends who keep showing up for it.

It is the part of my link to Africa that has nothing to do with quota. I have been on site at the school in each of the last three years. I help where I'm useful, and I'm working on bringing it closer to INSEAD.
