Hi, I’m Oli Paterson. I grew up by the seaside in the UK and have since put down roots on Vancouver Island in Canada.

I have had a long, winding journey toward entrepreneurial thinking. From my not-so-sure 20s working in fraud prevention, logistics and even a chocolate shop (read: eating chocolate) to swinging a hammer for a living, it has been an experience. As I made each attempt at finding my calling, I took another swipe with the brush, flailing at the canvas of life, until I stood back and found nothing but a mess.

Fast forward to today, and I am living the quasi-dream. I own multiple businesses, I am back in higher education and I have time to pursue my passions.
