Brian Bailie lives by the calm waters of Strangford Lough on the Ards Peninsula of Northern Ireland. In his field, he is a well-known product designer and owner of an international manufacturing business based in industrial east coast China, and he is the author of several candid business and travel advice publications.

However, Brian is first and foremost a son. When his mother's dementia was first diagnosed his world was turned upside-down, and his business was put on hold while he attempted to provide the best care for her.
