Having fun with people in a job where we get to play dress ups and dance to music all day, unreal!
How would your colleagues describe you?
Relaxed and fun but still hard-working.
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?
Two things you need are hard work and time and you can make anything.
What do you like to do on your days off?
I like exploring and moving on my day off. Whether it be climbing, hiking or just going out dancing; anything that gets me up and about.
What does ‘home’ mean to you?
In the sun in Australia and I miss it.
What’s your hype song?
I can’t pick one, but for a genre I’d have to go metal.
What makes you smile?
Having fun with people in a job where we get to play dress ups and dance to music all day, unreal.
