What don’t we know about you?
I love eating and cooking; I love to entertain friends and family, feeding them with my latest creation over a nice bottle of wine. I am only a recent fan of exercise but I am still learning how to run and have recently lost over 8kgs in 7 weeks and am feeling full of energy to get into some outdoor sports. I achieve my work/life balance through exercise, meditation and eating out at least once a week. My secret childhood desire was to become a Secret Agent and I actually do have a Black Belt in Taekwondo!
