For many years, I built structures.
As a project manager in the construction industry, I spent two decades helping turn plans into buildings. Over time, however, I became increasingly interested in a different kind of structure: the stories, relationships, losses, hopes, and questions that shape human lives.
That curiosity eventually led me to counselling and psychotherapy.
Today, I hold a Master’s degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy and work from an existential and humanistic perspective. My interests include grief, meaning, identity, life transitions, migration, belonging, and the ways people navigate uncertainty and change.
Outside therapy, I remain a traveller and a seeker. I am drawn to cultures, food, conversations, landscapes, and the lived experiences that connect us across different places and backgrounds.
My interest in food eventually led me to study Commercial Cookery and Culinary Arts. For me, food is more than something we eat. It carries memory, identity, culture, and stories. Like travel and psychotherapy, it offers another way of understanding people and the many ways of being human.
YAS The Quester is a home for these explorations.
It is a place where psychotherapy meets philosophy, where grief meets meaning, where travel meets culture, and where personal stories meet broader questions about life, freedom, connection, and mortality.
I do not claim to have answers to life’s biggest questions. I am simply committed to exploring them with honesty, curiosity, and care.

Reflections on selfhood, belonging, personal growth, and the evolving nature of identity.

Reflections on migration, displacement, cultural transitions, identity, and belonging.

Reflections on love, intimacy, attachment, conflict, and the complexities of human relationships.
Healing does not always come from finding answers. Sometimes it begins with making space for the questions.
Curious about people, places, stories, taste, and what it means to be human.
