Health
There were periods in my life where I was not healthy at all. Today I live the opposite. Clean food, deep sleep, a regulated nervous system, sobriety, training, longevity. Not as a project, as a baseline.

About
A life lived in creation.
I am an entrepreneur and an investor. I spend my days building companies, allocating capital, and sitting with leaders who are working on themselves.
For more than two decades I worked in sales, recruitment, leadership and business building. In 2013 I co-founded Focus Engineering, where I spent over a decade building and leading the company, recruiting hundreds of professionals and growing teams across Europe.
Somewhere along the way I became interested in a question most business books cannot answer. Why do some founders, teams and companies create extraordinary results, while others run into the same wall again and again.
That question pulled me past strategy and into the inner structures behind decisions, leadership and performance. Seven years of intense inner work followed, and continues today.
Treasure hunter
The treasures changed. The adventure stayed.
As a child I was convinced I would become a treasure hunter. I spent hours drawing treasure maps, burying treasures in the garden, and dreaming with my grandmother about the adventures we would one day go on. Looking back, I realize I never stopped being one. The treasures simply changed.
What has always stayed with me is a deep sense of curiosity. A desire to explore. To experience life. To discover what is possible.
Today my treasures are found in a meaningful conversation, a healthy body, a beautiful business, a smart investment, a new country, or the hidden potential within another person. Sometimes they are external. Sometimes they are already within us, simply waiting to be uncovered and appreciated.
I do not believe we are missing anything. I believe we are here to explore what is already here, discover new possibilities, and learn to truly cherish the treasures we find along the way.
I believe we all have an inner treasure hunter. Mine simply never grew up. Above Below is my way of sharing that adventure.
Three threads
Health. Wealth. Freedom.
Wealth
I have made money and I have lost money. Both taught me how to build companies, design clean structures, invest with patience, and move from earning income toward generational wealth.
Freedom
Not freedom as escape. Freedom as a life arranged around what I love, where the line between working and living quietly disappears.
Above Below
My main work is Above Below.
With Keith Hodge I consult founders on conscious creation. Keith takes a founder to the root of what is limiting them. I translate what surfaces into vision, strategy and execution the company can act on.
If you are a founder carrying the business personally, and the same constraint keeps returning, this is where to start with me.
Also
One to one, and investment.
Leadership, one to one
I work privately with leaders who want their leadership, business and life to operate as one coherent whole. Where you need practical guidance on health, wealth or the business, I bring that too. I have built all of it, so I know what these things ask of you.
EnquireInvestment
I invest in highly profitable, high impact, deeply interesting companies, with time, with money, or with both. If you are building something I should know about, send it my way.
