Giles Verdon

Giles grew up on a farm in the New Forest before pursuing a career in engineering. Initially working in automotive engineering he later progressed to developing and running mixed teams of people who were tasked with improving efficiency while also reducing the impact on the planet.

An environmentalist at heart, Giles believes that the only way to fix some of the issues facing humanity is to engineer our way to a more sustainable future. While the south of England doesn't have Denver's mountains which limits the opportunity for hiking or climbing, it does have the sea and living only a couple of miles away allows Giles to follow his passion for sailing.
