Biography
With a focus on arts and ideas, I look at culture in its broader sense through my writing. I'm a senior contributor at Forbes Lifestyle and Wallpaper* and the editorial director for VOICES for Maze Row – a publication at the intersection of wine, food, and culture. I have authored several lifestyle books, including the critically acclaimed and commercially successful The Life Negroni, and I work as a content strategist and luxury brand consultant at Spinach. Elsewhere, I contribute as an independent forecaster and consultant for several international brands through my company Design Talks. My formal education is in art and design, with a BA Honours in design history. I also hold a diploma in curating contemporary art and design, and a pass with distinction for WSET Level 2 Award in Wines.
