Hi, I'm founder and sole-proprietor of WASH for life.

WASH as in Water Supply, Sanitation and Hygiene; services I believe everyone should have access to.

WASH 'for life' as these services provide and preserve life; three-quarter million people still do not have access to safe water and a staggering 2.5 billion people have to do without proper sanitation. As a result, MORE THAN 2000 CHILDREN DIE FROM EASILY PREVENTABLE DIARRHEAL DISEASE EVERY DAY.

As a father, I simply cannot accept this. Hence, I'm pulling my weight - through advocacy and action - to achieving universal access to WASH.

I also love travelling and exploring countries; so far I have visited, travelled and worked in 53 - my aim is to at least double that number.

Apart from WASH, travelling, my family and my home, I am also a lover of cool cars and bikes, especially my own Italian sweethearts: Alfa Rome 156SW, Maserati GT3200 and Ducati Monster.

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you'd like to know more about, discuss or need and expert in WASH, development or humanitarian aid. Or cool cars 'n' bikes ... ;-)
