About

Entrepreneurial Ventures

As the co-founder of Ideapod, I launched a platform originally conceived as a social network for sharing ideas. It has now evolved into a sustainable digital media entity, introducing AI-driven idea generation tools to enhance human creativity.

In collaboration with Rudá Iandê, I co-created The Vessel, a platform dedicated to self-knowledge and personal growth. The Vessel offers courses and community engagement to empower individuals to explore and realize their potential. A portion of the sales supports environmental conservation efforts, particularly in regions affected by deforestation.

Alongside my brothers, Brendan and Lachlan, I serve as a director at Brown Brothers Media. Our company builds and scales digital media and e-commerce entities, focusing on both organic and paid traffic. We also support philanthropic initiatives such as mental health and anti-human trafficking efforts.

Educational Journey

I hold an MSc in Economic History from the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). I pursued a PhD in International Political Economy at the University of Warwick but discontinued it to focus on my entrepreneurial ventures.

Additionally, I earned an MA in Global Studies from the University of Wroclaw, an MA (First Class Honours) in International Relations from the Australian National University, and a BComm in International Management from the University of Melbourne.

Throughout my academic journey, I was awarded several fellowships, including the Erasmus Mundus Fellowship and the Hedley Bull Fellowship.

Philosophy of Engagement and Freedom

I believe that true freedom arises not from escaping life’s challenges but by engaging with them creatively and meaningfully. This philosophy drives my entrepreneurial spirit and my dedication to creating platforms that empower individuals to reflect, engage, and grow within the complexities of their lives.

Commitment to Global Impact

My passion for making a meaningful difference extends to various aspects of my work. Through The Vessel, we dedicate a portion of our sales to environmental conservation efforts, focusing particularly on regions affected by deforestation. This commitment reflects our dedication to not only fostering personal growth but also nurturing the planet. Additionally, Brown Brothers Media is actively involved in anti-human trafficking efforts and supports innovative mental health solutions, including the exploration of therapeutic uses of psychedelics.
