Moving to CCS Media. It gave me a better work-life balance.

Snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef.

The people. They have retired.

What is your least favourite task during the working day?

I don't have a least favourite task; I enjoy every part of my job.

If you were an animal, what would you be?

Enjoy myself. And not fill this form out - you don't have to print this part!
