Nic Obi doesn't believe in formulaic rules for biographies. He prefers spontaneity. Custom dictates that an author's bio should look and sound a certain way, but if it were up to him, there would only be one line: "Growing up barefoot in the forest made my imagination come alive."

Obi grew up in nature. Immersed in the waters of the Indian Ocean, he loves nothing more than the flow of nature's rhythm. These days he is an award-winning Creative Director living in Abu Dhabi. It's a long way and many years from that natural home, but these influences have helped unlock his dynamic wisdom and energy. An intrepid searcher, he uses travel, research, mindful living, and his own flavor of meditation to motivate his mind. He wants to see things differently from the herd and chase the light within.
