Hi,

I’m Cam Wells. Thanks for dropping in. I’m not big on bios, but here’s what matters:

I grew up in Zimbabwe and moved to Australia at 18. Those two places shaped me in different ways. Zimbabwe taught me that work is a privilege, not a right. Australia showed me that if you show up, care about your work, and own the result, you can do just about anything.

That contrast drives how I operate.

For the past decade I’ve worked across mining, construction, and energy—starting at the bottom, learning the ropes, leading small teams, and now running the commercial side of projects. These days I spend a lot of time on contracts, numbers, and strategy—but I still believe success lies in the agency of the people around around you, and the relationships you have with them.

The best education is the one you create yourself. You can learn almost anything today if you’re willing to.

What I share here is simple: clear, useful lessons for people who’d rather make progress than excuses. If you value clarity over noise, and if you’d rather under-promise and over-deliver, you’ll feel at home here.
