Living our values

My parents have shaped the values I live by. My mother raised me and my brother with relentless tenacity, despite challenges that would have discouraged most. From her, I learned resilience and quiet strength. My father, a successful entrepreneur and world traveller who reinvented himself later in life, taught me to stay curious and never settle for mediocrity. Even today, he embraces new ideas, explores unfamiliar paths, and seeks growth in all areas of life. Their example is why the Apax values of ‘impact through insight and tenacity’ and ‘learn, adapt and grow’ resonate deeply with me.
