Chief executive, TechQuarters

What was the worst job you have ever had?

Selling discount vouchers in Tesco car-parks for Blockbuster.

Which actor would you pick to play you in a movie of your life?

It would have to be Arnold Schwarzenegger, simply so I could say "Get to the Chopper!".

What do you do as your party trick?

Walk on my hands, while touching my nose with my tongue.

What is your favourite chocolate bar?

Lindt chocolate.

What has been the highlight of your career to date?

Starting TQ from my second bedroom to where we are now - watching the business grow is amazing.

Has 2014 been a good, bad or ugly year?

It has been an absolutely brilliant year, with the growth of the business, the great partnerships made and the fantastic new staff that have joined.

Aside from the channel, my dream career would be... a professional cyclist.
