In a conversation with CNA Lifestyle, about his vision, he said, “I want to be doing something impactful – whether it’s with the companies that I’m trying to build or story-telling with movies or documentaries.”

He went on, “I want to be building up teams that are inclusive, constantly working on missions for which I plan to take over from the UK to the States as well.”

“I don’t think it’s bad to care about everything, but there’s only some things you can really focus on and really push them forward towards change.” However, he was pragmatic about this approach. “There are so many things to care about, and you can’t do everything, right?”.
