DIRECTOR

With over two decades of experience spanning Consumer Technology marketing (hardware and software), FMCG, and entrepreneurship, I've embarked on a journey that has led me to the cutting edge of health tech and longevity research. As the founder of SymbionIQ Labs and The SymbionIQ Foundation, I'm now channeling my passion for health, fitness, and medical technology into groundbreaking work aimed at extending human healthspan and lifespan.

My career began in building iconic brands and driving ROI across various sectors, from startups to global corporates. As a polymath and ENTJ, I've thrived in both creative and technical environments, often serving as a bridge between sales, marketing, and R&D. This diverse background has given me a unique perspective on business development in a global, multicultural context.

For the past eight years, my focus has increasingly shifted towards health and med tech. This passion has culminated in the creation of SymbionIQ Labs and The SymbionIQ Foundation, where we're developing innovative solutions to empower individuals with control over their health data and incentivize behaviors that promote longevity.

Our work at SymbionIQ combines cutting-edge technology with a radical vision for the future of human health. We're not just creating products; we're building a decentralized ecosystem that aligns economic incentives with positive health outcomes. From developing wearable tech to pioneering new models for health data ownership and monetization, we're at the forefront of the longevity revolution.

My journey from brand building to health tech innovation reflects my core belief: that the most impactful work lies at the intersection of passion and problem-solving. Whether it's designing retail environments, launching new products, or now, tackling the challenge of human aging, I approach each project with strategic thinking, creativity, and a willingness to get hands-on.

As we stand at the dawn of a new era in health and longevity, I'm more excited than ever about the potential to make a lasting impact. If you're interested in the future of health, the power of data to transform lives, or the potential of technology to extend human healthspan, I'd love to connect.
Together, we can redefine what it means to live a long, healthy life. Let's augment life, one innovation at a time.
