Ice Cream

8. What was the last project you worked on?

I just finished a very interesting project with an Engineering client, it looked at how best to improve and automate key processes in a heavily manual environment, they are always a challenge but offer great satisfaction when you see the team reach the end of the journey.

9. Who is the person who had the greatest influence on you and why?

My father, he was a strong character which wasn’t always easy but he was honest and he instilled my moral compass

10. What would you like to think your friends say about you?

I wish he would stop buying me all those expensive gifts….No but really, I would hope they say I am kind, honest and always there
