I've climbed to the top of two career ladders and now I'm enjoying giving a little back by footing the ladder for others.
My main focus apart from family and our health is coaching climate action and #Permaculture by teaching its ethical and principled approach to life and doing my best to be living it.
By way of #introduction much of my bio can be found at https://wheretofind.me/@StevePLMarquis & on the LinkedIn in particular.
