At 21, I survived piracy at sea for 331 days. That experience changed everything — how I see fear, pressure, and what it means to keep going when everything feels impossible. I left sea service after that, with no roadmap, and rebuilt myself from scratch on shore. In 2017, I became a founder, building ARC Continental FZE in the UAE. In 2025, I wrote Hijacked — because that story needed to be told, and because I know there are others out there carrying their own versions of it. Today I work with individuals, students, and organizations on mental health, work-life balance, and career transitions. If you're caught in fear, self-doubt, or a season of life that feels overwhelming — I've been there, in ways most people haven't. I don't offer textbook advice. I offer perspective forged through real experience, and a genuine belief that you can find your footing again, no matter where you are right now.
