About
Skip is the first “e-bike for walking”: an ultralight exoskeleton that could be a beautiful, intuitive and transformative product to help a billion people be more active and healthy
Skip spun out of X, where I was a General Manager. At X, our mission is to invent and launch "moonshot" technologies that aim to make the world a radically better place. Our goal: 10x impact on the world's most intractable problems, not just 10% improvement.
Before X, I worked in sub-Saharan Africa, developing an economic development strategy in Nigeria and starting multiple agri-businesses from scratch throughout the region for an investment fund. With McKinsey, I worked on the statistics for the Diabetes Care Project – the largest clinical trial of primary care worldwide.
I hold a B.Sc. (Hons I) in Mathematics and Physics, an MSc in Theoretical Physics from the Perimeter Institute, and joint MBA/MPP from Harvard and Stanford. Between being born to expats and working in development, I variably claim to be British, Kiwi or Australian, depending on who has the best weather or is winning the current sporting event.
