Biography

What was your first ever job?

I was a Saturday assistant in Woolworths.

What was your worst experience as a trainee?

Being sent to Court for my then boss, having been told that it was a very simple matter and I needed to turn up and say nothing. Upon getting there, it became clear that the Judge had other ideas and began to question me as to why the application had been made and what I expected him to grant. It must have been very obvious that I did not have a clue.

What’s the best thing about your job?

Seeing people emerge from a very difficult period in their lives, stronger and happier than when I first meet them.
