Coming from a creative background and later pursuing an MBA in Finance, my journey has always been shaped by curiosity, creativity, and a deep appreciation for heritage. I have always been fascinated by art, vintage objects, and historical paintings—the stories they hold and the craftsmanship behind them. My passion for conservation comes from a desire to connect with the knowledge, skills, and artistic traditions of our ancestors. The remarkable techniques and understanding of materials used by past generations continue to inspire me, with many artworks and artefacts surviving for centuries as a testament to their creativity and expertise.
