MY STORY - BITE-SIZED
A tale of man versus nature
The temperature was as low as -40C°. Winds blowing up to 100km/h. The altitude: 10.000ft. And there I was, walking, one foot after another, 8 hours per day, 8 days straight. I never felt so exposed to the elements but in doing so, I gained a new-found respect for just how majestic, how vast, how utterly awe-inspiring this continent really is.
A lesson of Persuasion, Ownership and Commitment
My journey illustrates the power of embracing and owning new challenges; then staying committed to completion; and using persuasion to navigate and overcome obstacles along the way to mission success. Persuasion, Ownership and Commitment. Those are what I learned through this trip – qualities undoubtably integral to my life and career
