I enjoy exploring new boundaries both professionally and personally.
 
I read widely on general cultural matters, politics, philosophy and international relations, business
thinking and change management and I use online resources daily for news, comment, briefings and
new cultural, media and technology developments.
 
Interests include art, music, theatre, film, television and a paperless office.
 
I have had significant involvement in the cultural sector spending many years on the boards of nfp arts organisations such as a a new writing theater, a photography gallery and a film theatre.
 
I also train on the beach daily when not running after my 3-year-old daughter.
