Sam Bryan-Merrett

Having originally started out as a budding musician and producer, Sam's career history is about as diverse as his ambitions. Having worked in finance up until the market meltdown of 2007-2008, Sam then built up a successful Apple-centric IT business that essentially seed funded Comte des Cierges. He has subsequently dedicated his efforts into both developing the website and drawing upon his artistic side to become one of the sites most prolific writers, where he can never resist scoping out London's top 5-star hotels and more recently rekindled his passion for motoring.
