TWO MINUTE INTERVIEW

What do you enjoy doing when you’re not at work?

I like to cook. Well – I like to eat! But I can cook the basics and I like to think I do it pretty well, but prefer going out to eat. I’m also an Arsenal supporter, though in the office I’ve found myself sitting opposite one Spurs supporter and next to another! All without a hint of trouble of course. My own

sporting endeavours begin and end with the occasional Sunday kick about in the park though.

Earliest memory?

Unsurprisingly it’s related to the great outdoors! I was on a beach on holiday and building sand castles.

Likes and dislikes?

I really am not a fan of rain and bad weather and would much prefer to be out in the sunshine. It probably comes as no surprise that I like combining these and am a big fan of barbeques. I prefer to get out of London when I can and am lucky that my family have a place in Dorset. Other travelling has been cut short by my student loan, but I enjoyed visiting Seoul and hope to go back soon. I didn’t bother adjusting to the time zone, as staying on UK time worked perfectly for enjoying the night life!

What would you do if you hadn’t gone into IT?

I’ve always thought I would have probably like to have worked in medicine because I find it quite interesting. Well, it looks interesting on TV anyway!
