A lawyer turned traveller, Richard graduated from UCT in 1992 with a BA LLB - and promptly went on a world 'walkabout', working and travelling his way around six continents. He returned to Cape Town to start Flatspin in November 2000.
Although he has done a stint in the corporate programming world (ending at Sky TV in London) his real passion is for people. He is a qualified life and business coach, and gets a kick out of seeing people live and work to their full potential.
Richard represents a new style of leadership and has done much to create an open environment where Flatspinners are encouraged to live their dreams.
