About

As a polymath in progress and cultural translator, I am a writer, speaker, consultant, professor, podcaster, and brand strategist who runs UYD Management - a strategic consulting firm that helps organizations incorporate sustainable diversity and inclusion practices. As the son of a diplomat, I grew up understanding the nuances of multicultural diversity while living on 4 continents. I have leveraged and translated my experiences to various stages including TEDx, the prestigious Chautauqua Institution as well as the United Nations. I regularly expand on my research by interviewing top industry leaders via my top rated "As Told by Nomads" podcast as well as consulting with corporations ranging from fast growing startups to multinationals. Finally, in addition to being a professor at the Imperial College Business School and Felician University, I am the author of Use Your Difference To Make A Difference.
