About
As the Founder and CEO of K & Daisy, I specialize in helping small and mid-sized tourism businesses achieve growth. With an LLM in International Law and International Relations from the University of Kent, UK, and a Bachelor’s in Commerce and Defence Studies, I bring a decade of military leadership and 15 years of tourism experience.
Over the years, I have managed and operated guesthouses, liveaboards, travel agencies and rental properties building extensive expertise across various facets of the tourism industry. Also, as a Padi Pro with a passion for underwater visual storytelling i’ve been solo-travelling the oceans researching ocean-based tourism models.
