I meet Lonni at , where 100 per cent of profits go directly into Third Space Life Charity, providing free counselling and specialized community programs to locals in need, regardless of financial barriers. As a consultant and operations manager, Lonni is part of a group of like-minded professionals creating a space for people to connect and find community, with an emphasis on mental health matters. Asked what he loves most about his work, he answers, 鈥淭hat all our profits go to our charity, Community Care Program, providing mental health services for people who cannot afford them. The best life lesson I鈥檝e learned working here is that asking for help isn鈥檛 weak, it is the complete opposite.鈥
Outside of work, Lonni is passionate about his son, Ian, and his health. And when it comes to good style for Lonni, it鈥檚 all about simple, sharp and masculine.
