After beginning his career in management consulting, Harry dived into the world of startups in search of something more meaningful and challenging. He spent over 5 years there, going from intern to first employee to manager; but still something was missing. So he backpacked the world, and then did an MBA – learning from those who had managed to create lives worth writing stories about, and realising that there are so many other capable individuals as lost as he felt. Obsessed with personal growth and entrepreneurship, he created Nomad Academy to bring the mindsets and skills of those with epic lives to the people who dare to make something of themselves. He runs the vision & strategy here at Nomad Academy.
