Athlete, Entrepreneur, Environmentalist, Foodie, Lawyer, Startup

I was born and raised in Edinburgh, where my parents still live. I studied law at Exeter College, Oxford University, where my main leisure activities were modern pentathlon and swimming clubs. Having finished law school in Oxford, I initially worked as a tax lawyer for Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer in the City of London. I gave that up in 2008 to run a food delivery business that I co-founded. I successfully sold out of that several years later and co-founded the UK's first juice cleanse delivery service. I now live in leafy Richmond, south west London, with a cycling mad husband and a one year old son. I'm active and sporty; I particularly enjoy Pilates, cycling, walking, skiing and horse riding.

My family, good health, beautiful rural countryside.

This will be my third TED - I've been to TED Globals in Oxford and Edinburgh before.
