Make Education Worth the Time

7 Summits with Leanna Shuttleworth

I had the opportunity to meet Leanna Shuttleworth and hear her story. I love the fact that I have an opportunity to do a radio show, Nightline, on DubaiEye and meet people that I might actually meet at TED.

Middle East Music

Triplew.me‘s Paul Kelly joins me every other week on Nightline every other week to talk music, photography and film that is independently produced in the middle east. I never cease to be amazed by what Paul comes up with. What is clear to me, more than ever, is that the UAE and other countries in the [...]

Career Plans?

How much career planning are you doing or have you done? I know several people who have mapped things out and have pretty well followed the road-map. My plan has been pretty haphazard and gone more with luck, intuition and chance. What if your career was only really destined to last 4 years? It was [...]

Hugh Says it! My Role on DubaiEye’s Nightline

Keep records.

When I did my Ph.D a whole lot of time was spent in the Canadian Archives going through memos and letters and very random pieces of paper. Today, because of the digital environment we live in we spend far too little time collecting the bits and pieces of our lives that become a very interesting piece [...]
