I am a wealth reporter at Forbes, based in London covering the business of billionaires, philanthropy, investing, tax, technology and lifestyle. I studied at Goldsmiths, University of London and joined from Spear's Magazine, where I covered everything from the Westminster bubble to world of wealth management, private banking, divorce law, alternative assets, tax, tech and succession. Notable bylines include an investigation into Switzerland's bi-lateral bonds to the European Union, and a journey through Bhutan - testing the hunger for democracy, and the love for their King. I joined Forbes in May 2019.
