Lachie is a naturally curious person, a lover of books, travel, and nature. He values connection to place and community, using these as guiding values in daily life.
He believes there is a disconnection between contemporary society and the environmental impact spurring the biodiversity and climate crisis. This is what inspired him to undertake an MA in Sustainability and apply it in the Circular Economy.
