FAVOURITE CITY
Hong Kong where I spent part of my childhood and have lived for the past 7 years. I love to go hiking in the New Territories with friends, wakeboarding and junk boat trips at the weekend and eating dim sum at Maxims City Hall.
BRAND
I recently came across Xian Sheng a Chinese menswear brand with a minimal aesthetic and quality materials. And Philip Huang for his cool indigo tie die casual wear.
SNEAKER
Tom Sachs gave me a pair of his Nike collaboration a few years ago and I have worn them to death.
BOOK
I loved the biography of Joseph Duveen who was the art dealer to Rockefeller, JP Morgan and Frick.
ALBUM
Sinn Sisamuth and Ros Sereysothea the Elvis and Aretha of Cambodia - every person in Cambodia, young and old, knows and loves their music.
GREAT AMBITION
To bring together art collecting and philanthropy.
