WORK · WEALTH · LIFE

Making sense of work, money & a life beyond both.

Most of what I share starts with something I’m trying to understand for myself – how to work well, use money intentionally, understand business and still leave room for the rest of life.

Turn ideas into useful things

I’ve written five books, mostly for students, including The Rules of Revision - practical resources designed to make learning easier to act on.

Law, beyond the theory

After studying law at BPP, I moved into corporate law - another world where judgement, clear thinking and attention to detail matter.

A LITTLE CONTEXT

Lawyer by training.

I’ve spent years moving between demanding academic work, corporate law and creating things online. The common thread is curiosity - how people learn, work, make decisions and build a life that still feels like their own.

SELECTED IDEAS

A few ideas worth going deeper on

LAWYER EXPLAINS · VIDEO

What corporate law actually looks like from the inside.

Long hours, high stakes and a world most people only see from the outside. I break down how corporate lawyers work, what they’re paid for and what the job is really like.

MONEY · VIDEO

Building wealth without making money the whole point.

From tracking spending to investing and portfolio decisions, I’ve become increasingly interested in the systems that turn money into more choice – not just a bigger number.

BUILDER · MENOS

Building a product is different from talking about business.

Menos started as an attempt to build a minimalist backpack without compromising on function. The process meant dealing with materials, manufacturing, positioning and hundreds of small decisions.

LIFE · ENERGY

How to work hard without making work your whole life.

I’m interested in the systems that make demanding work sustainable – energy, habits, relationships and knowing when optimisation has gone far enough.

Most of these ideas start as something I’m trying to understand for myself. The useful ones eventually become videos, articles, systems - and occasionally something I build.

“Success comes in many forms, and being a good parent, partner or friend is more valuable than any academic or professional success.”

ONE MORE THING

Ideas are better when they start a conversation.

If something here made you think, challenged an assumption or gave you an idea worth trying, I’d love to hear about it.S

I create videos and resources around learning, productivity, careers, law and wellbeing - usually based on things I’m trying to understand or improve for myself.
