Meet Chris

Founder of Spiralmore; Spiral architect, strategic question-asker, and still lovingly tethered to the academic world.

I’m Chris, the person behind the PDFs, frameworks, and gentle-but-effective nudges that Spiralmore puts into the world. My background includes academia, mentorship, and digital ecosystem design, but Spiralmore isn’t built from titles. It’s built from questions that don’t flinch.

I spend my days chasing the sweet spot between structure and resonance: frameworks that feel lived-in, storytelling that earns its arc, and language that says just enough, and then one sentence more than it should, for impact.

Some call me a “values-driven disruptor,” others just know I love asking questions that start with, “So what would happen if…”

I’ve supervised PhDs, designed systems, rewritten entire programme visions on napkins, and helped people say exactly what they meant, even when they weren’t sure they could. If I have a motto, it’s:

“Push them five paces short of the answer; that’s where their real thinking starts.”

Spiralmore was born out of hundreds of office conversations that turned into frameworks, and hundreds more quiet realisations that good storytelling needs structure, but not too much. A bit like dancing with a lamp on your head: unexpected, effective, and weirdly freeing.

“It’s storytelling with soul.”
(Apparently, I’m not allowed to put that on a t-shirt, but I’m still thinking about it)

Thanks for being here. Take a wander. Read a few things. Ask a question you’re not quite ready to answer; those are my favourite kind.

This image below holds more than geometry; it’s the kind of visual I used when teaching to invite wonder, precision, and a little cheeky awe. Spiral symmetry offers a playful contradiction: fluid yet exact, organic yet algorithmic. Whether you’re tracing the path of a sunflower seed or charting protein folding, spirals remind us that structure and story often start with the same turning point.
